Fairphone 6 official, gets expanded modular design with accessories
-
Is the screen curved? It looks flat to me, as with all.previous models. Fairphone usually uses components that are easier to source and that will be in production for longer, so something like the curved screen (which seems to go in and out of fashion every few years) would be a strange choice.
I tried to look for what the right term was, and this was what I found. Doesn't make sense to me either. What I meant was the rounded corners.

I'm starting to like the specs more than previous gens. At this rate, I might buy the 7 or 8 - 6 still seems like a downgrade from my current phone in some respects and I don't NEED a new phone anytime soon.

You can also buy through Vireo, they ship globally.
TY!
edit: wasn't able to find it on their devices pages....

How's the hardware security tho? Skeptical this is a viable alternative to a Pixel running GrapheneOS.

Oh okay. I assume those will continue for a while. They are quite obviously targeting iPhone users, so their design language is mimicking iPhones as well.

The usage of LTPO will mean more efficient battery usage. Props for being fair. Although could have a higher ram model for future proofing.
The hardware specs have always been mediocre on the Fairphone. Buying a high end phone will get you more years from the same phone.

For their mission statement this is acceptable. You can't easily do things like fairphone without also charging a premium for that.
If they start exploiting labour like chinese OEMs they could offer similar or cheap phones like them with better specs.

Sure. What I don’t get is Fairphone not building a high end device.
Assembling a 1500 € phone should cost about the same as a 600 € phone. A more expensive phone also gives a bigger margin to work with to pay for all the extra labor and other „fair“ costs.
Then a Fairphone could become a status symbol as well.
