In a bid to reduce global electronic waste, Fairphone has created a smartphone that owners can repair themselves. What makes its technology so sustainable?
there are some niche users who don’t really need all the performance.
if it can browse the net, run light apps (IE not trying to run something like PUBG mobile or other games like it), and have a great battery then it would have an audience.
that being said, hell, the galaxy S2 with cynogenmod lasted me well into kitkat and i even tried oreo on the thing (too slow by then), and the biggest thing was the battery and sd card slot that allowed me to really keep it for way beyond its time.
I would even say that most users don’t need the performance of the phones they are buying
Although the price to performance ratio of the fairphone is indeed pretty high (i have a fp4 myself), but the longevity makes it worth it
