        You pay extra because the materials were sourced through moral means and not sweatshops.

        I for one like that feature.

          I do too, but it’s a hard sell for the masses right now. I want Fairphone to succeed but it’s tough.

          Their subscription program is even less competitive.

      Did they make a Fairphone Fold yet? If not then I’m not leaving my Z Fold 3 anytime soon. I regret not waiting for the Pixel Fold…

        I don’t think they will, any time yet anyway.

        Looking at how my FP3 and the newer FP4 is assembled, I don’t think they can make a foldable and easily repairable device right now (didn’t stop them releasing those unrepairable Earbuds, but oh well)

        There’s also the software aspect too

      I only stick to my Note 9 (peak Samsung) because of stylus support that no one else offers. When Fairphone stars offering as awesome stylus support as Samsung does, I’m moving immediately.
