Additionally, I might not feel quite so compelled to put a fairphone in a massive case and worry about it constantly, since I know if something breaks it’s not a huge deal to fix it.

If you are required to buy a brand new device if it gets too old or something happens to yours, you are able to each time decide what new device you want where as with these you can modify the phone how you want throughout its use making it last longer as well as be more inclined to stay with that device or company.

Also, if you know anyone living in Europe you can have them order it and then send it to you. That's what I'm doing.

    Clarification to the "watertightness":
    It is very water "resistant", but not "waterprof".
    The "IP 54"-rating means:
    First digit is rating for dust and objects. It says "5" and that means "Dust protected".
    Second didget is rating for water intrusion. Is says "4" and means it can handle water splashes from all angles, but you can't dip it in water.

      @@Carterthielftw_ The problem is what happens if you repair a modern phone. There's a good chance that it will cease to be water resistant, or will have less water resistance than it did new. That's what makes a phone like this potentially better. There are no seals that need to be broken (which is often the glue in modern phones), so it's designed to still retain the same level of resistance to dust and water as when it was new.

    I have gained a lot of respect for Linus lately. I learned a lot in the NCIX and the early LMG days about building and working on my first build, and definitely owe a lot to getting me started over a decade ago. To see him supporting and exposing people to products like Fairphone and Framework I am even more grateful for though. It is what we need, considering how bad it has become. Given how devices have gone from bad to worse for repairability, the consumers, the workers, and the planet, we need products and companies like this.

    RE 5:37: A meter of water is significantly MORE pressure than a milk jug cap experiences. The pressure is solely based on the height of the liquid. That's why we measure pressure in mmHg, it's milimeters (distance) of mercury. We measure in millimeters, not volume, because only the vertical component matters. Because milk has a similar density to water, you can express the pressure in mmMilk based on how many mm are between the center of the cap and the top of the milk in the jug. 1mmMilk is approximately 1.025 mmH2O due to the density of milk being about 1.03g/cm^3 whereas water is approximately 1 g/cm3. It turns out that a few inches of milk pressure is several times less pressure than 1 meter of water.

Since moving to the FP3 the only problem I've seen is one where the screen went black after the phone was dropped, I took it apart and screwed it back together and it started working again. Now I've got a FP4 and it's been working without problems for six months or so.

    “Imagine how many devices you’ve had to replace because a port broke”
    No fucking joke here, broken ports have been the thing that pushes me to change phone throughout several years. My last phone had microphone issues though but the one before it had port issues and probably the one before that aswell. I've only had 1 phone crack the screen, I've had 1 flip phone (remember those?) break in half, but other than those, it's usually just very minute issues that led me to upgrade. I think even one phone I had to upgrade because Apple stopped supporting it for software updates and the phone literally turned slower than a brick.
    Edit: I'm 100% buying a Fairphone once I upgrade from my current one. I'm almost tempted to get one right now (I won't since it's a waste when my current phone works fine), but it's been quite some time since I felt that way. The samsung flip screen stuff seemed cool aswell several years ago until lo and behold it broke as expected. Other than that I normally don't feel excited to get a new phone while I'm fine with a current one, feels like a waste of money to be frank.

    No headphone jack
    _"We were THIS CLOSE to greatness"_
    Meme aside, it's a great device - hopefully, the Fairphone 5 has a 3.5mm port. Oh, and an OLED screen.
    *EDIT:* *This is for everyone defending removing the headphone jack.* Many IEMs are capable of having their cables replaced. I own the KZ EDX Pro, ZSN Pro X, and ZEX - *all of which,* can have their cables removed and replaced at any time. Cables can range from long, short, have 2.5mm, 3.5mm, or use a Bluetooth adapter for wireless connectivity.
    Unless your phone has aptX capabilities built-in or given through Magisk, you will *ALWAYS* be in a *MAJOR DISADVANTAGE* in terms of audio quality. You do not even account for things such as the *degredation* of the unit's battery life _(which makes wired devices with replaceable cables superior in this regard)_ and its striking issues regarding *latency.*
    I have a KZ Z3 which is KZ's latest TWS unit. It uses Qualcomm's QCC3040 chip and features the latest in Bluetooth with BT5.2 and AptX technology with aptX Adaptive. It has 1 set of balanced armature drivers and 1 set of dynamic drivers. While the spec. sheet may sound impressive, I would say that my wired IEMs sound better, if not - at the very least - comparable. There is better clarity, soundstage, unnoticeable latency, and I do not need to charge or worry about charging at all.
    As a Legendary-ranked _(since the third season since the game's release)_ Garena solo queue Call of Duty Mobile player _(not bragging, just trying to make a point),_ no matter how much the company advertises it, there will always be a delay when it comes to audio as *there will always be a need for processing.* TWS is just the most noticeable when it comes to latency. *The higher your level of gameplay, the more unfeasible it is to use.* I get about 80-200ms delay on my Z3's using my Snapdragon 845 Google Pixel 2 XL even with high performance mode on and I assure you that as much as I love how my Z3s look, feel, and sound, *using my TWS puts me at a disadvantage when gaming.* There is a reason that you don't see professional gamers or streamers using TWS during their gameplay - and that's because it sucks when it comes to latency. *YOU ARE AT A DISADVANTAGE.*
    *Removing the headphone jack is anti-consumer, anti-environment, and anti-Right-to-Repair.* Defending such trends that remove _(not even replace)_ useful features is to support Apple and Big Tech pegging its customers from behind. *Blind compliance and brand loyalty lowers overall buying power.*
    *_Competition breeds innovation, sure, but vote with your wallets all the same, you nerds. Your children will thank you._*

My previous Galaxy's speaker broke within 6 months and my most recent one's speaker also broke within 6 months, meaning I get quiet, mono audio with nothing and crackles out of the other speaker. More frustratingly my USB C port is super fragile and is very temperamental in whether it will allow me to charge, even more annoying when I'm driving and it makes my satnav keep cutting out.
    For the price we pay for those phones the reparability or quick service turnaround is a must. I haven't bothered with servicing my phone because it would mean likely getting a factory reset and being without my phone for several weeks which I can't really do without purchasing a burner.

    just wanted to point out that pressure in a liquid is almost always based on how deep in a liquid something is regardless of volume /container - so one meter of water is certainly more pressure than the few inches of milk (depth wise the lid is only a few inches deep if its on its side)(even with slightly different densities) just a nitpick but awesome video!

      The point is for the water to egress from a milk jug it must push against the seal that is containing it. However, with an actual phone the mechanics at play is totally different. Water ingress from any seams the device may have means that there might not be any pressure sealing the joints that the water is entering from.

    • @reeeeeeeeemmmmmmmmmm
      @reeeeeeeeemmmmmmmmmm 2 роки тому +2

      Came here to say just that. It'd be the same as holding a meter tall jug of milk upside down, pretty much. Give or take a bit because milk will have slightly different density than water.

      Well if we are getting technical, you should also add the fact that the milk is in closed container, and the squeezing of the container will add to the pressure. But that would be negligible me thinks.
