Ooo cant wait to hear how long the device life support will be heard its going to compete with ios in terms of longevity. Just hope they wont go the fairphone route
Edit: afaik Fairphone is offering 8 years of software updates but due to the hardware the security updates will be limited after 5 years specifically the lack of baseband security updates. Still good regardless for sustainability but not security. This person’s comment made me aware
Literally the only thing missing from the Fairphone 5 is an optical zoom, otherwise it has all features a modern phone should have. I don’t get why people always want the latest and greatest processing power in their smartphones, when all they do is text and take pictures with it

Why not? Is 8 years bad or something?
I think it’s because Fairphone is offering 5 years OS + extra 3 security to make 8, and not just 8 OS/security updates
What’s wrong with fairphone?

The first thing I generally see commented on each Fairphone announcement is lack of a 3.5mm jack
