800 bucks = Overpriced AF
technology is evolving very fast and i don't think the SoC here will stand after 2 years against new ones !
For the sale price you have plenty of choices with top notch SoC : NP2, S23+, zenfone 9/10 RedMagic 8, Moto 40 edge, OP11 ...

This is a scam.

I don't think the camera can bang with today's flagship phones but it still takes nice pics! The screen was really nice as well!

It has removable battery, so I've replaced the original battery to a 10500mAh one. The Arnova Advanced 1.5 Gcam 6.1 port with Night Sight takes very high quality photos which can compete with modern phones. This phone runs every emulator games at playable speed, except Dolphin and ExaGear emulators. LG V20 has unrestricted access to the filesystem, Android/data folder, even on the microSD card. The call recording works perfectly. It has camera OIS, 3.5mm jack, FM Radio, IR remote features.

      The designers of Fairphone should create a successor to LG V20 with these features and latest high-end Snapdragon CPU with cooling like heat pipes.

        Why there is no 3.5mm audio jack connector?

        No 3.5mm audio jack, no FM Radio = no buy. It's a deal breaker.

          If you want this phone to last long, at least put the latest chipset in there. Not one which is snapdragon 778g performance.

            Bought Fairphone 5, I update from Fairphone 2 which no longer gets support. Used Fairphone 2 for 7 years since March 2016, last upgrade was Android 10 and I got Android 5 out of the box.

            I hope Fairphone 5 will last me even longer with more updates.

On being a nobody or just being a troll that usually knows nothing about tech? If i ask you about hardware, you probably think: a blue thingy that delets viruses. Get a clue, if you do not want this phone move a long and try to be "smart" somewhere else. People who buy this kind of devices are not people who think, talk, live like you. In all this areas they are better. Also people who buy this Fairphones alltogether do not use their devices to play Cocojambo in trees 3D. They use it for what it is, a smartphone. And yes their are enough people who want to keep their devices for longer then half a year, 2 years or 3 years. Till date their was none offering this, that is why some were forced to change. Lagging after 4 years? You definetly know nothing about fairphone nor how they do support, their second model was updated for 7 years and nobody complained about laggines. Also nobody complained about not having spare parts, because there were. If Fairphone could do that with fairphone 2, they can do even better with 5. Now, that you learned nothing, because to much information doesn't fit your agenda, go be i somewhere else. Xiaomi comments sections, you'll fit right in.

                              After looking through my drawer of old smartphones the only reason I keep buying more is the battery stops holding a charge. I just got a new phone but when that ones starts losing its charge and I need to replace it my next phone will have to have a replaceable battery. So it looks like my next phone will be a Fairphone either the 6 or the 7.

We know better. You are clearly not in the Fairphone community. If you were, you'd know better and you could actually learn a thing or two.

                                        This is a great phone:

                                        Good screen
                                        Good cameras
                                        AOD
                                        Long support

                                        The phone feels good in hand and not that heavy even it is more than 200gr it feels just not heavy. It is a bit thick though.

                                        No charger in the box but use the old charger from previous phone so not a problem with USB C. Also plenty fast enough so i don't understand the complaining about the chip set.

                                        It is expensive but very much worth it is a very good phone the most sustainable phone in the world. So worth the price because also good and very long software support and 5 years warranty. Also you can send back your old phone so they will recycle the phone for you.

                                        After all this phone is recommendable I am happy with it.
