It's still easy to get parts for Fairphone 4 and most parts (some out of stock, unclear if permanently) for Fairphone 3, and some parts for Fairphone 2.

And how is fairphone supposed to get people to hear about the phones without making the phone in the first place?

And it isn't really a one off since they have made 5 different phone models and some other stuff in the last decade.

They also support their phones software for a relatively long time.

It's just amazing how many people comment under fairphone post without knowing anything about the brand. I guess it's mostly American user because it's not sold in North America.

But fairphone has been operating since 2013, they are not a one off.

It's really awesome what they are doing especially as they are the only one doing this. The right to repai is super important for consumer. It's very sad to see people calling those issue "woke".

When people of every background and political spectrum are victim of corporation preventing them to easily fix what they buy.

Talk to any farmers about jon dear! Or any buy it for life enthusiasts.
