To be more than a blip on the radar, Fairphone needs to go way past 80% of customer needs. Hendriks says people want to make a contribution (to sustainability), but they don’t want to sacrifice everything else in the process.
This sounds like the new CEO wants to sacrifice sustainability for popularity. The current gen fairphones are everything they need to be imo. There is barely a need for improvements on the hardware side and its supported very well by custom roms.
To achieve that feat, Fairphone is more closely collaborating with Google and Qualcomm.
This could mean anything but i dont think collaborating closely with google is what Fairphones need more of tbh.
This sounds like very bad news imo.
