I am looking at getting one as my next phone when my Pixel 7 reaches EOL. Hopefully the Fairphones are still around by then and hopefully they get more support from custom ROMs. I know CalyxOS supports the Fairphone 4

    Love the passive-aggressive tone of this one, lol.

    USB-C is for charging and transferring data. Dongles suck, they break and ultimately they’re just an uncomfortable workaround.

    I will never understand why people are so willing to defend companies that have decided to take away a pretty big feature from their phones with the only clear intention of selling garbage BT headphones

      USB-C is 24 pins, taking a ground somewhere and 3 pins for left/right/mic is the best thing for phone. I have super solid braided adapter to plug my 3.5mm audio jack. No need to use Bluetooth even if my phone supports LDAC, AptX HD or AAC.
