We have exclusive leaked renders of the Fairphone 5. The next Fairphone will come in black, blue, and a nifty transparent edition.

    That looks rather nice. My Pixel 6 should be good for a few years yet, but I’d like to think my next phone will be a Fairphone if they keep improving like this.

      Agreed; I have a oneplus 9 5g and it feels way too early to upgrade again, but fairphone sounds like a great consideration for my next device.

      At the same time, I kind of respect their conviction to only sell in Europe where they don’t need to participate in global shipping to the same extent, and don’t need to grow unsustainably. We want something like the Fairphone? Someone here has got to make it.

      Or anywhere outside of their own continent for that matter.

    How is the software experience with Fairphone? Is it generally pretty stable and bug free?

      Huh that sucks. The repairability as an argument for sustainability is not a good one if parts are then not actually available to do repairs. Repairing it during its warranty period is only one half of the coin.

    I’m hoping for a 120 Hz OLED screen. That’s my biggest reason for not getting a Fairphone 4.

      @LaggyKar @uthredii For not being OLED or not being 120 Hz?

        Both, but mostly the refresh rate

    Hopefully, they fix their camera API so that GCam works properly this time. Being stuck with the stock photo app was the only downside of version 4 imo.
