FAIRPHONE Gen.6, Modular Android Smartphone, 8GB/256GB, 50MP AI Camera, AI Photo Edit, Google Gemini, Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, 120Hz OLED, Dual SIM, Replaceable Battery, Cloud White

I just wanted to add a quick review after a few days of ownership for those of you considering this phone. To give it some context I have come from a Pixel 7 Pro with a battery that has just fallen off a cliff (not literally) and an intermittent USB charging port problem. First off the phone looked really nice in dark green, a good choice for me, it is a little lighter than my old phone and a little smaller. Lovely screen, really nice and bright with great definition, sound ok, not as bad as many have made out. I was forced to do the software swap over the air because of the Pixel's broken USB port but this worked seamlessly with no issues. Coming from what was once a class leading camera, the camera on the Fairphone is certainly good enough for general use so don't be put off by some of the comments. All the updates were done by me at the beginning of use, so the phone is as up to date as it can be. I do wonder if some of the negative comments i have seen online are because in the USA this is an $800 phone where as I have paid just over £400, a huge difference with I'm guessing very different expectations. First reactions from me are good and buying it on Amazon is probably the best way to buy it in case there are any issues or you don't like it when it arrives. Very happy so far and will add to this review should that change. Hopefully this phone will last me a very long time.

Great phone so far. Bit heavy but good resolution, camera is great. Above all, I bought for the company value of ethical phone which is repairable. So hopefully, it will be as they claim 🤞🏾

One of the best smartphone I ever had. I was swapping my s24 to this after long thinking, and I'm not missing wireless charging and Samsung bloatware. Ok it's not faster than S24 but still have better battery life and thanks by stock android is jus easy to use, quality of photos even without GCam are amazing (yes it's doing better, more realistic and detailed photos). Screen without fingerprint also is not big issue for me, I don't really need fingerprint scanner under screen if I could replace faulty screen by myself with reasonable price. What I could say more... From negatives (default launcher didn't have possibility to create folders or other methods to organise apps in app drawer and no possibility to hide or rename apps but that could be resolved by installing addictional launcher like smart launcher. There is not to many Google bloatware, but with small tool we could do that by ADB commands. Fairphone supposed to have more options to personalise physicaly by different cases. I would like to see some day addictional e-ink screen upgrade on back. Every phone on market supposed to have that support and access to repair own phones. I can feel again I owned device (not device own me). Fully recommend.

I have been using this phone for a couple of months (now past the returnable date), and am preparing to send it to the manufacturer for repair under warranty. In general I have found this phone very nice to use, apart from some occasional minor glitches and lags. I do like it, and am in favour of its ease of sustainable repairability. However, I am disappointed in finding it suddenly unusable when the battery ran down, was put on charge, and then spontaneously shut down and could no longer be charged or restarted. It left me high and dry. This is not what you'd expect from a £500+ phone.

Fingerprint sensor on the phone switcg bugging out, an issue I've had with phones in the past that never got fixed and I'm not waiting around in the hope this one will. I suspect there's a good reason why manufacturers have mostly dropped the power switch/sensor combination that's not been leaned here. And the battery life isn't great too put it mildly. I bought this to replace an old pixel phone that has had its battery throttled after a recent update but it's still comparable to this thing. Sorry, ethics good but it's just not there as a product

Excellent

Be really careful when buying a fairphone. The ethos and spirit behind it is brilliant, but they aren't a serious enough company with enough resources behind them if anything goes wrong. Customer service is extremely slow, to the point of non existent. When my Fairphone 5 stopped working in March, live chat support was only available mid morning on a friday, great for a student project, less good for a company selling smartphones. After months and months of chasing, they agreed to part refund my phone in July. I posted it back to them, they confirmed I'd get a refund (a third of what it cost). Nothing has been paid. It's October next week. I bought the phone almost 2 years ago, it lasted just 17 months, easily the shortest lifetime of any phone I've owned, so much for saving the environment. It's a shame because the idea is good, but they aren't very good at having customers

Hatte bis vor einem halben Jahr ein LG, war einfach Zeit für ein neues Handy. Meine Entscheidung für dieses Gerät waren durch die Langlebigkeit und die Herstellungsweise geprägt. Die Bedienung mußte ich erstmal lernen, war aber kein Problem. Auch die Akkulaufzeit hat mich positiv überrascht. Kurz: Top und das Geld wirklich wert.

Unbelievable amount of bugs with software with this device From black screening to random apps closes to if you search for an application from the large list you click on the app that shows it will open the app first In line on your list I love the idea of being able to repair your device but software on this phone is absolutely hot garbage

Mi sto trovando molto bene con questo dispositivo, a parte qualche bug di sistema per software acerbo, adesso tutti risolti.. cercavo qualcosa contro il consumismo, 5 anni di garanzia e 10 anni di aggiornamenti software.. azianda molto valida dopo anni di Xperia.. display bellissimo fotografie ottime.. audio di qualità lo consiglio

This is my first Fairphone, so I wasn't sure what to expect. But I'm very happy with it. The build quality is good, though plastic. The screen seems to be very fingerprint resistant. Camera quality is decent. I'm very pleased with the performance. I did flash it with e/os, so that may have had an effect on the experience compared to the stock firmware. Can confirm it works perfectly on T-Mobile. - At this point, I plan to get a Fairphone again on the next go-round. Would recommend, especially with e/os.

ottimo android phone, fluido, schermo luminoso, manegevvole e di facile utilizzo. E per di più ha la batteria sostituibile (ma questa è la filosofia fairphone). Per ora ottimo acquisto
