justasmile, 02 Nov 2023bla bla bla... Just look at the specs and the price. No ... moreSo you're saying you support worker exploitation, slavery, contamination and all the awful stuff that other companies are doing. Making phones that only last 6 month in the low end and 3 years in the flagships. Even if it costs 700 dollars, this phone will still be faster 10 years down the line than those cheaper phones that you say are faster that will only last you 6 months or maybe a year if you're generous.

I wish Apple made a phone like this. It has a card slot, and a removable battery.

Anonymous, 20 Oct 2023Bang for the buck - 👎For that you better shop Chinese ware, and you can also contribute to other things than environmental protection, like child labor, underpaid people, toxic waste, zero recycling, and so on. And I’m sure you will receive one OS update and 3 maybe 4 security patches 😉 👍🏻

Most people don't need latest and greatest. Stuff you can do with this phone is pretty impressive. Reason for the high price. You expect them to keep the phone for 7-10 years
Even though I have a good track record of taking care of phones. My Huawei Mate 10 Pro to this day still is ok in fact I manage to hardwired the 12v to 3.8v to the battery manage system chip (replace battery that is connected BMS chip) use everyday at my desk.
I have a Xiaomi Black Shark Snapdragon 845 gaming phone that has easiest time to replace the battery. These two phones is almost 7 years old. Issue with these phones is buying the battery that isn't from manufacturer is a hit and miss reason why I hardwired one of the phones for my desktop use. Current battery for Xiaomi Phone I got lucky that its actual 4200 mah battery. Many times I got one that is 2000 mah and would fail in few months.
I feel like demanding software will slow down on non-gaming side. There isn't much room to innovate other than making them faster for gaming use. Majority are just wasting money away if they try to upgrade every 2-3 years.
Even for gaming use most of the games can run on older Snapdragon 845 with Adreno 630 which Fairphone 5 has much better 643. May not run a lot of highend game but competitive games is made to easy to run on very old phones with Adreno 620 or Mediatek G88.

they should be "fair" about the price tag.
chinese company could offer SD 7 gen 2 at much lower price.
this phone has nothing "fair" to be considered with such price segment.
if only "fair" phone could offer same spec with around 50% more price, it can be considered fair enough.
this phone only sells gimmick

[deleted post]And you could know! As you've used this phone thoroughly for at least two weeks straight to come up with such a well formed and substantiated review of the phone. We thank you!
