Been looking at the Fairphone 6 and damn, support until 2033? That's actually insane.

The whole replaceable parts thing is pretty sick too. Battery goes bad? Just swap it instead of dropping $800 on a new phone or getting the battery replaced for $100

Probably gonna throw /e/OS on it too because why not.

What's everyone else using? Anyone actually have experience with Fairphone or am I just getting hyped over nothing?

They can ship it with e/os already installed, which is awesome.

I know someone with a fp4. It seemed like you could get 'more' phone for the same amount of money, at the time. But then again, i have a feeling that not all brands/models are supported in the same way that fairphone strives to.

It seems easy enough to install /e/os afterward. Thinking about buying the phone in store
