Yesterday my old Fairphone 3 decided to go for a dive on the kitchen sink and I apparently didn’t give it enough time to dry it out. The display now won’t turn on. I went to their website to look for a replacement but they seem to be “out of stock”. So much for repairability…

I’m a bit disappointed with the Fairphone overall (that would be for a separate discussion), and I’m looking for other alternatives.

I don’t really need a powerful device, but I’d really like to have a headphone jack, a SD slot and above all the ability to install alternative ROMs. I was using /e/OS (aka MurenaOS) but I’d be fine with anything that lets me use F-Droid and micro-g instead of Google Play Services.

I know that there are “comparison websites” out there that can filter devices by features and/or price, and I know that Murena and LineageOS sites provide a list of the devices they support, but I haven’t found any suite that can include both. Does such a site exist?

    The whole Motorola G have both, and there are some Motorola devices with LineageOS. I guess I need to find any developer mentioning interest in working with the newer models and buy accordingly (and donate what I can to keep them going)

      Pixel 4a models do have headphone jack if you don’t need the newest models, unfortunately no sd card slot still
