More than a decade after launching in Europe, the Netherlands company is now selling its repairable phones in the US, starting with the Fairphone (Gen 6+).

      There’s one dev who’s been hard at work making postmarketOS work for FP6:

      It doesn’t sound possible on the FP6 or FP6+. But maybe in the future? If people keep asking them (politely!) they might consider adding support for the 7 or 8

      I thought Fairphone was one of the few supported phones. Perhaps I’m thinking of a different phone OS.

      Buy a Pixel or wait for Motorola to release their GrapheneOS compatible smartphone.

        Been burned too many times by Motorola. They always promise but I have rarely seen them deliver.

        I haven’t heard of this. Looking into it there’s at least a year wait. I’d consider it - though my Edge 2022 battery may not make it until then. Damn thing was crap from day 1.
