While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys' opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

I would totally buy one if they brought it to the US.

Too bad about the ~software~ security updates and lack of security features. Might be a good spare phone though

I would love to get one.

I went with pixel 8 Pro and graphene os, but I did consider fp.

Can you even use a new fp in the US?

I will be buying one. Sorry, the 3.5mm jack days have passed. The perceptible quality difference from current gen BT headphones is negligible for 99% of people. If you are in the 1%, listen on your dedicated hardware at home, but dont bog down item specs for the rest of people.
