While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys’ opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

    As soon as my FP 3 dies they will hopefully have a new phone with a headphone jack. In 10 years or so.

      Don’t forget to let them know that at the various consumer surveys they send regularly. But I wouldn’t hold my breath…

      Honestly I’d probably buy a phone without a camera before I’d buy a phone without a headphone jack.

      I was sold on the idea of a fairphone but that’s a dealbreaker to me. I very briefly owned a phone without a headphone jack (borrowed from a friend while my current one was in repair), having to think of that stupid adapter all the time was hell.

          Yeah, that’s what I really don’t get about all the people in this thread. No matter how many headphones you have, the adapter is like 10$ at most. Just get as many as you need to always have one where you need it
