      I'm pretty sure Fairphone will keep giving security patches until the latest updated OS version has gone EOL, just like Android 10 on Fairphone 2. The only reason why Fairphone 2 is no longer supported is that Android 10 is already EOL.

        AnonD-454049, 12 Jul 2023delusional, that would be extremely expensiveMan it was only example i am not saying product liek this must exist.
        And when comes to expensive please explan me why Apple came with 96GB of possible ram on their newest laptops.
        Its also useless and in next 10 years it will stay this way. 8GB is enough 16GB is more than enough, 32GB ram for some heavy games if you play on max possible specs. 64GB ram and more is just a gimmick to stand out of crowd. Just like a phone with 3pcs of SD 8 gen 2 or 11TB disk space.

          AnonD-454049, 12 Jul 2023You know as well as anyone that it's just a pipe dreamWell right here right now yes later it will be possible maybe. Lets see what future brings.

            blue, 12 Jul 2023What a surprise, a more demanding OS slows phones down...They did it on purpose back in 2017 btw. And as a correction it's happened when the iOS 11 update.

            There's more source of information that says the similar thing, but I'm just gonna give you the link to the newest one.

                        Feels like some of your fellow iPhone users basis for benchmarks is based on how fast they can scroll all over the home screen.

                                  Cpt.Power, 11 Jul 2023Well same goes for camera and many else like bigger battery... moreBattery could be replaceable with higher capacity as the technology develops, that's the easier way. Cameras... well, too difficult, but an integrated set could be removable. Still it would cause problems with OS, android is not as open as Windows to accept whatever you put in the box.

                                      Imagine a 3 pieces of SD 8 gen 2 CPU powering this phone with 24GB ram plus 8GB virtual one 1 inch camera sensor on all rear camera same for front one 22k mAh battery like Doogee V max, 300W charging speeds and 11TB disk space along with titanium forge grade 5 body and shapphire screen display and leather back.
                                      Used all max possible which were seen on any phone or at least.

                                        AnonD-454049, 11 Jul 2023so iphones are garbage? good to know.As far as I read from many people's complaint in online communities like Reddit, Apple A14 Bionic is one of the inefficient chipset that they've ever made, very different compared to any of it's successor like A15 and A16 which is more efficient.
