With completely wireless earbuds, the rule is: when the battery fails, they have to be disposed of. Not so with the Fairbuds, that allow you to replace batteries in just a few seconds. Combined with a repairable design, the earbuds should therefore have an extremely long lifetime.

    here’s hoping the next Fairphone finally launches new in the US.

    Really would love to finally use one.

        they sell the fairphone 4 not the 5. And while I’m not against e/os/, that’s kind of neat for me I think it’d be awesome if they sold the original model with android with all of Google Spyware lol

          The bootloader is open so you could throw Fairphone’s Android on there no problem. I think they provide the files for that (didn’t check so don’t know for sure)

          This is true. Hopefully they will soon sell the 5! I tossed lineageOS on mine, and have felt pleased with it.

            Did you buy it from fairphone or are you saying you got the fairphone 4 with e/os/ from Mureno?

                I’m curious what made you not like e/os/. I’m interested to try it if they do the fairphone 5

                  I didn’t have strong feelings about it, and had extensive experience with LineageOS. I just stuck with what I knew.
