Fairphones seem okay from a hardware POV but the software is a bit lacking in terms of security and support.
I AM BUYING IT NOWWWW!!! LESSSS GOOOO!
ITT: People complaining about how this phone is 100% perfect and what they want. Instead of moving towards heaven, we might as well remain in hell until heaven is directly attainable. It’s a good start and the more money that gets thrown this way, the more others will follow. But by all means, don’t support this endeavor, let’s stay in our Apple/Samsung/Google versions of hell instead.
That is what turned me off choosing Graphene, other than having to buy Google hardware. They, but also some other Foss people, are investing way too much time attacking other alternatives fiercely, as if they were created by the devil, because they are not pure enough or because they are less secure than Graphene.
Pixel + graphene OS ftw
Now make it for Graphene
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.
$650 is less bad than I thought it was going to be.
I’ve “read my last free article”.
Fuck you, Wired
No, see it was meant as a threat.
has no one here ever heard of anti-paywall filters or bypass paywalls clean filter? perfect with ublock origin on firefox btw.
Wired subscription is pretty cheap and they do good work.
They also had a data breach of all their users a few months ago so…
How dare they try to figure out how to stay employed
Surprised to see that the 6+ with its 12gb of ram has lower price per gig of ram than the regular old 6. Guess I’ll upgrade my pixel 7 to the 6+
The new Fairphone is available on Amazon and at Fairphone.com for $650, and it’s officially certified to work on T-Mobile and AT&T’s networks.
Fail lol
That’s exciting. Does anyone know how /e/os compare to stock android or graphene? And should we be worried about Murena messing it up, or is it a solid company?
Bluetooth is fine for mobile.
Now of they only manage to fix that fucking known issues within the lifespan of the phone it would be great
Man, I would love if the software project I worked on had this few bugs. Need to add a couple more orders of magnitude to reach the same ‘heights’.
