In a bid to reduce global electronic waste, Fairphone has created a smartphone that owners can repair themselves. What makes its technology so sustainable?
If you want hardware assembly get a few old notebooks that would be thrown away either way. Kids tend to break stuff when learning and I don’t think you’d want them to do that to an actual phone that is intended for further use.
A Laptop is also much larger than the phones and there are more components to learn about and play around with.
Good plan. I actually got them one of those really cheap pinebooks a couple of years back but their mom said they needed a windows laptop so I got to keep it. Might give it now anyway.
it just isnt.
Good luck getting the back off most modern phones without a heatgun and replacement adhesive
Would this phone be a good introduction to hardware assembly for kids? Kinda like legos?

My two cents.
