Fairphone

[Mike]

I am surprised this is the first I've heard of Fairphone. The idea is to make a phone that is easily repairable at home, has all the basic parts be cheap and modular and easy to swap, and comes with guaranteed Android updates/support for 8-10 years. It's a forever phone.

I haven't read any reviews of performance, but the Fairphone 4 goes for about $600 and the Fairphone 5 is going to be released soon. I'm intrigued.

Pardon the whirring noise as I calculate how much money could have been saved over the years if kids had this option...
