Looks like a new model for the Fairphone has been announced! What do you think about it?
Personally I love the fairphone project but after having tried GrapheneOS on my Pixel 6a it would be hard to move to a different OS

I have a Galaxy s5 and it would still be usable with a custom ROM if parts of the hardware didn’t die and so are ages old Laptops…
Usable is subjective. Would it run WhatsApp, viodecalls, banking apps, YouTube etc?
You have a good experience with aged laptops I have a different one. This does not help much. It would be interesting to see a real data, but I do not think it exist/published. ☹️
Idk why video calls and Whatsapp wouldn’t work but I never used the normal Youtube app so all I can tell you is that Newpipe still works great, the official Youtube website is definitely a pain like any JS heavy piece of garbage. Not sure why you would have a bad experience with old Laptops unless they break or you try to run Windows on one, if you got at least 2GB of RAM in it you should be fine in my experience but 4GB is more ideal these days.
I have a Galaxy S4 and it’s basically unusable at this point. I was able to install LineageOS and the home screen feels okay, but it stutters like hell when I do anything more demanding such as browsing YouTube.
Hmm, Newpipe works fine for me but really heavy websites definitrly are a pain, still clearly usable all in all tho and considering how much slower smartphone development is now I have no doubts a good device will be usable in eight years, you can look at the computer side to tell that hardware requirements for general use probably won’t increase much for the forseeable future!
