Overview:
Released on September 15, 2023, the Fairphone 5 introduces a revolutionary concept in smartphones by embracing modularity, allowing users to swap components seamlessly. This modular design, coupled with a 6.46-inch OLED display and Android 13 up to 2031, positions it as a device built for both sustainability and longevity. The Octa-core processor, Qualcomm QCM6490 chipset, 8GB RAM, and expandable storage up to 2TB ensure powerful and flexible performance, catering to diverse user needs.
Not only does the Fairphone 5 focus on innovation, but it also prioritizes durability and environmental responsibility. With features like a glass front protected by Gorilla Glass 5, a plastic body, and adherence to MIL-STD-810G standards alongside IP54 dust and water resistance, it emphasizes sustainability. The device's commitment to an eco-conscious approach extends to the dual 50 MP rear camera setup, 50 MP front camera, and other advanced features like a 90Hz refresh rate. Priced at US$892.00 or €826.00, the Fairphone 5 invites users to make an ethical choice for a sustainable future, fortified by a 5-year warranty and software support until 2031.

i find it hard to believe the battery would be none removable as the whole ethos of fairphone is the longevity of its devices and the impacts it has on the planet in the long run. that is why all fairphone are modular so there easier to repair and keep running for far longer that a none modular phone. i would seriously consider buying the fairphone 5 there are just a few small things putting me off making a commitment. 1. charging speed 20w is just way to slow for modern times should be at least 25w like most Samsung phone. 2. battery capacity should be at least 4500 mAh as alot of high end devices are now reducing capacity so the devices can be thinner. 3. must have a micro sd card slot as again most manufacturers have removed it which is a shame a big shame. if fairphone make a fp 5 and it has all these upgrades i would gladly give them a try.
