Millions of environment damaging phones will be sold for a few thousand of these fairphones so what difference does it make? Absolutely nothing.
Just driving an internal combustion engine car everyday to work will damage the environment thousands of times more than all the phones you will ever own so plant some trees and drive an electric scooter to work and you will REALLY be giving you 2 cents.
Be smart and avoid getting yourself ripped off.

Fairphone 5 has the same features as other phones, but one advantage is that you can repair it yourself, but the price of this phone is much higher.

Anonymous, 16 Sep 2023Maybe a fair phone but the price is not fair at all. For 40... moreSo you buy 2 phones for the price of one which means extra e-waste and recourse winning, which are both made zero percent of recycled materials, worker get paid a dollar per hour, miners work in the worst conditions, some children assemble the phone but you ask yourself why the price is higher than same specced phones 🤡🤦♂️🤦♀️🤷

I... moreThis phone costs this much because it's supposed to last for years, unlike every other phone that is designed to be chucked in the trash the moment the battery stops taking a charge. Everything on this phone is supposed to be repairable. If the battery goes bad, just buy another battery, instead of an entire phone.

Maybe a fair phone but the price is not fair at all. For 400$ I can get a phone with similar specs and during the year's if I can't replace a component I have more 400$ to spend in a new phone.

The main downside for this phone is definitely the price. I don't know if the price is fair, but for most people who just want a decent phone that works it's too high. Around $450 would be ok and well justified, but $800 is insane. For this money you can get flagship phones that surpass this phone in almost every aspect. Why people who care about environment are the ones who must pay the most? This logic is against those believs.

Fairphone is one of the few manufacturers not selling blatant planned obsolescence. I only wish they would go in the lightweight, small screen, low power draw RISC-V chipset direction instead of the widescreen OLED brick route.
Not all of us are gamers. I would bet for most of us the most pressing worry is dropping the thing and cracking the screen rather than noticing a 5ms latency on a 5g millimeter wave streamed 4k belle delphine ice cream so good tik tok or whatever. F = ma so the more bloated the phone is with giant UHD screen and giant battery needed to power it, the more likely it is to crack. The screen reaching the edges doesn't help. That's why you have to swaddle the thing in a fat case and screen protector for it to not die instantly from the slightest impact.

This mobile phone has better speakers than the HONOR 50 up to the HONOR 90, which is unfortunate for Honor, especially since this Fairphone has a stronger processor than the Honor 50 up to the Honor 90. This hurts Honor a lot.

I have very little interest on switching my phones every two to three years. They simply offer me to keep same phone and not spend my time on transferring my MFA apps to new phone. Both Apple and Fairphone are offering that to market and people who value their time and have no reason to buy more powerful phone are willing to pay for that privilege.
Also, you wouldn't believe how many old folks curse android manufacturers for forcing them to switch to new phone as often as they do. Im not sure how many of them are willing to spend twice as much, but my guess is that enough for them to make this profitable business.
Obviously it is not product for gamers, but for those people who use smartphones for less demanding tasks. I for one am still using oneplus 6t, and only forced to change because it has been year since it received security updates.
