Fairphone reminds me of Frameworks, the company making their laptops’ components replaceable. I don’t see why Fairphone couldn’t do the same Frameworks do for laptops, whatsoever. It’d be amazing.
They actually put more effort towards fair material usage and sources, unlike Framework. Fairphone strive to create a phone that's fair as much as possible, which include getting sources with no child labor and certified mineral mining, etc. While Framework only strive to make a customisable, repairable, modular laptops. They make products that seems to share the same principle at look at function, but their company goals are slightly different. Nonetheless, would be cool if they could release upgradable modular parts instead of releasing new phones, much like... well... Framework
@@Mario_Lugo it cost too much and the sources dealing works aren't easy as they selectively choose them. Much like framework, customisable mobile devices cost a fortune to manufacture. Maybe that's why there are no competitors... yet...
@@Mario_Lugothere are mainly three reason 1. People won't upgrade to new phones if their old phones work for a long time and they fix it themselves. 2. You can see the phone is a bit thick and the internal design is like 2010 phones 3. They don't make as much as money as they would do from selling new phones with no repair
I love idea of swappable parts. Maybe in Fairphone 6, they could make the option for users that wants to upgrade to buy the phone with certain parts empty such as the speaker or the charging port and the user can just transfer those components from their older phone
For the old phone, the user could buy replacement for the missing parts and sell it or give to a family member maybe. That's certainly cheaper than buying a whole new phone. Or if they don't want to, maybe they can send the old one back to Fairphone to recycle
@@itsarian. I know. But it'll be cool, and it aligns with their company goal to reduce smartphones manufacturing impact. It would be cool, but it might not be achievable. I'm sure someone up in their company leaders have thought this but they just couldn't do it yet
According to the very transparent listing of costs ... the Fairphone costs that much, because that is what it should cost ... and you should rather wonder, why other phones cost so little. Where do they save money? (unethical working conditions, non ecologically sourced materials, etc. ) - If Samsung or Apple were as fair as the Fairphone, they would go for over 2k ... but - they are not, soo...
Samsung and Apple would be able to save some money due to economies of scale and fixed material costs (like screen and battery), but there's no way a normal big company will look into ethical sourcing when it would make production costs more expensive.
Apples phone would not be more expensive, they already get way more than what it costs. They would just have to slim their margins by increasing producing cost.
They save money on: -cheap slave labor (in particular the re-education camps in the Xinjiang province of China) -cheap materials (extracted from poor countries with weak environmental laws) -reselling of marketing data by spying on you. Not just the keywords you type, but also what you say, as the microphone is recording you at all times. Also most large corporations get generous tax breaks or subsidies by giving kickbacks to government officials.
The reasons why swapping the cameras and most other parts between the fairphone 5 and 4 not working is most likely the chipset/cpu, if it has different CPU’s it’s unlikely it’ll every work like that

I actually thought one of the main draws for this phone was the ability to upgrade individual components instead of having to buy a whole new phone. I could have sworn Fairphone touted that claim at some point but I guess I was wrong. It sucks that you can't upgrade the parts individually between phones, and while being able to repair the phone easily is nice it would have been even nicer if they went to the extent of making upgradable parts. I was actually planning on buying a used Fairphone 4 and just buying parts for the Fairphone 5 and installing them, but it's a good thing I didn't do that.
You sound like you mean "Framework", the laptop company. Haven't seen Fairphone make that claim, but i could be wrong. But that would indeed be cool, but i see issues on the software side, due to Linux Devicetree stuff and Android Drivers and the Android Kernel just being a mess (trust me, i know how cursed it is, and the whole ARM scene in general.)
you misunderstood what they meant, but nevertheless they didn't entirely kept their actual promise either. They indeed claimed that phones would be upgradeable, but what they meant was not that you could upgrade from e.g. 4 to 5, but that they would for e.g. release a new camera module that would be compatible with fp4 and you could just buy that to upgrade and not buy an entire new phone. They actually did this up until FP3, but no upgraded modules where launched for FP4 and FP5 is already out. But indeed, it would have been the coolest if modules would be backwards and forwards compatibility. I believe upgrade-able parts is still their goal, and them having experience with modularity definitely helps, but it's just that they couldn't really pull it off yet. Or at least not in any exciting ways. I heard that they're discussing with qualcom to develop a mobile cpu socket (like PCs have), but also from what I've heard the discussion is rather one sided, meaning FP told them and qualcom didn't entirely and explicitly dismissed the idea immediately.
@@CarcosaheadOf course it's overpriced compared to the rest of the phone market, you're paying for ethical hardware production; there's a reason why other companies don't do it...
Just came across this video and all I can is wow, its about time we had a phone that can be repaired easily and if one part goes, just replace that one. I hope Fairphone makes Its way to CAPE town South Africa soon......I'd go into debt to have this phone. Merry Christmas guys.
Why am I getting JerryRigEverything vibes sometimes when watching this teardown? It's just missing "it scratches at a level 6 with deeper grooves at a level 7"
Fairfone says its future proof because the chip they use is a commercial grade chip rather than a consumer chip. Commercial chips get upgrades for longer from qualcomm because its not expected commercial consumer to replace devices regularly. Consumer grade chips get replaced at a much higher frequency, so qualcomm just does not bother supporting them for as long.
I own this phone and i had a blast from the beginning. People hating on the camera are kinda right but also kinda wrong. the camera is great if you know how to use it. It's good enough for normal pictures just don't expect the Samsung zoom on these phones. Sony camera modules are great and fairphone is still improving software wise to improve the picture quality. The chip is future proof due to being able to run for a long time. These chips are actually not designed for phones but for robots and other oit devices that need a longer life span. Many companies have to drop support for phones due to qualcomm not pushing updates to a deprecated SOC. Fairphone eliminated that issue by choosing for a chip that gets supported with updates for more years to come(because the SOC of these chips get longer support). hence the longer support they can promise you for your phone. The phone performs well think of it as a 2021 flagship and your good. The phone isn't the flashiest and the newest compared to your s23 or iphone. but it will do the job just fine. Software runs well and gets improved by the month. You can really see how they put lots of effort in to this phone compared to other brands (cough samsung cough). The repairability is also a great bonus ofcourse. Feeling wise the phone feels like an iPhone 12 and or up. You can actually see some similarities in the camera app and in the way this phone has been designed. E/os ran from day one so that will make it even feel more like an actual iPhone for our fanboys out there. The phone is a bit on the heavier side with rounded edges and a somewhat thicker feel that you only notice at the start (which didn't matter to me because many of us actually knew how chunky a phone used to be). Long story short: I'd recommend this phone if you like a phone that's quick enough for all of your apps and games(on medium settings).
I think fairphone target the wrong market with their phones, they need to make more high end devices as with a repairable and sustainable phone you can keep it around longer. Also people in that market are more concerned about sustainability. I’d love a fair phone but I also love having flagship devices which push the limits and keeping them for 3-4 years.
Funny how 10 years ago pretty much most of phones were this easy to repair… My Nokia Lumia 830 for example is just held together with screws. It has a user replacable 2000 mAh battery and even Qi wireless charging, its a semi flagship phone from 2014. Its bigger brother the 930 in the other hand was not so easy to fix with a glued chassis…
An unexpected benefit I found to using the Fairphone is that I can swap sim-cards without using a sim-card tool. I was tasked with making a bunch of calls and got a pre-paid card for that. It's been so nice to simply take off the back, swap the sim-card and turn it on again, all without having to find where I put that tool. I can likewise imagine this being useful when traveling abroad.
A cost analysis has been performed on this phone, and it turns out that this phone has a very fair price. Compared to other phones it seems to be very expensive for the quality you're getting, but this isn't because the Fairphone is actually expensive. It is purely because other manufacturers abuse many people as well as the planet in order to keep their phones profitable when they sell them way too cheaply. The analysis also looked at the sustainability impact of the repairable elements since it uses more materials, and the impact is tiny and it's offset by the benefits it brings for longevity.
I think making parts swappable/upgradable would also require fairphone to include a firmware to flash so the phone actually works with the upgraded part. Some parts would work without requiring that like speaker and charging port and some parts might be hard if not possible like display screen.
I hope you are okay. I couldn't help but notice that in some parts of the video you sound...diffrent. I hope you continue making videos and love doing it. Always will watch your vids. ❤
For me, I still prefer the f(x)tec Pro¹-x. Same "no glue" mentality for pretty much everything (only the QWERTY keyboard is glued because they didn't find an alternative). Same "can take apart with just a single sized screwdriver" Same "no pairing of any parts or any other kind of DRM" Different "has headphone jack" Different "has factory selectable keyboard layout" Aproximately the same price. Different: Don't have extremely rich investors.
I just looked it up and I think that their next version might be my next phone once this one fully stops. I loved my mom's old phone I got as a kid because it had the keyboard. I would be using it to this day if it wasn't so outdated
Um this is unrelated but my iPhone 7 home button constantly rapid press when I touch it like it inputs multiple clicks a second and am looking but seems like no one has a fix
Bro in my iphone7 battery got drain in 1:30 to 1:50 min And it take 3hrs approx to get full charge how to solve this Battery health is 85% problem plz tell me
Main issue is hardware. By the time the 8 years of updates are done the hardware will be quite far behind. Like framework I wanna be able to upgrade components for more longevity. Cos after those 8 years people will get a new phone and the whole point of fair phone is longevity through repairability.
There are adapters which support both. I've got one and it works great. Sadly Fairphone doesn't sell those, but a simple USB-C to headphone jack adapter instead...
I really want to get a Fairphone 4 or 5 someday, I love the idea of having a phone for 8+ years if possible. Heck, I’m still using a dinky ass iPhone SE (gen 1) from 2016! It’s getting close to being on its last limb but it has served me surprisingly well thus far. Sure am gonna miss the small size and headphone jack when I eventually upgrade…
Same, though i have a samsung S8. At least there are some good quality Usb c dacs available like the fiio btr5, though its still annoying to buy a separate thing to have wired audio :/
Hi 👋 do you mind having a Samsung A54 opened up and take a look inside the phone itself? Or might as well try the Redmagic 9 that has a transparent background.
Can you use an iPhone without the back glass. Meaning can you remove the back glass and instead put a skin on it. Would that make the iPhone less heavy. I mean I don't see any use with an extra glass on the back. 😕
I think the Claim that the SoC is futureproof is because it's one of qualcomms iot/edge SoCs, which get longer driver Support. If you use one of those in for example a remote locstion, lets say as part of a weather Station on a mountain top, you don't want to get a new one brought up there every few years, just because the thing doesn't get any more support
Hey so, i have some questions. I have been a bit carless with my ipad, and cracked the screen. Then cracked it again, and its gotten to a bit of a bad point. The internal screen has no damage, just the glass cracked. How much would it cost, mainly. It is a gen 8 apple ipad large, i am pretty sure. And also how can i get it to you if so?
The CPU is not standard for smartphones. This one is used normally for industrial applications. The advantage is that CPUs for industrial applications have longer service lifes from the side of the producer.
At least we can give Samsung and Apple credit for at least including a charging cable. If that's actually the case, and they didn't actually include one.
Imo it should be a free addon, like when you buy it you check the box for cable or even a full charger. I don't need it but having the option would be nice for those that don't want to get some third party one or the expensive first party one (looking at you apple!)
Hey my iphone xs has alot of ghost touchss. It randomly clicks at any place and sometimes i got trouble bcz of it. Can you tell how to fix or I need to change screen?? 😢
Hey man your videos are awesome I love learning about tech. Been a tech fan since me and my dad built windows 95 desktops. I just have one very big question. Is it hard to fix the bottom glass off an Apple Watch Ultra? And would it be better to just get a new one or just repair the one I have? I appreciate you and your videos bro

i expected customs to also put a sticker on the phone itself
So happy you are so supportive of Fairfone! Proud of you!
tiktok ad: "guess the song" PRG: no
Amazing. Love your videos. Great work bro
Photo processing can always be improved with GCAM.
Main issue is hardware. By the time the 8 years of updates are done the hardware will be quite far behind. Like framework I wanna be able to upgrade components for more longevity. Cos after those 8 years people will get a new phone and the whole point of fair phone is longevity through repairability.
An upgradable SoC would be great, but I'm quite sure that won't be a thing for quite a while.
If no headphone jack, then it needs wireless charging so you can have a and adaptor plugged into the port and charge it the same time
There are adapters which support both. I've got one and it works great. Sadly Fairphone doesn't sell those, but a simple USB-C to headphone jack adapter instead...
That microphone on the FairPhone 5 was pretty nice, ngl. 😊
yes, it's missing a high end headphone DAC
I really want to get a Fairphone 4 or 5 someday, I love the idea of having a phone for 8+ years if possible. Heck, I’m still using a dinky ass iPhone SE (gen 1) from 2016! It’s getting close to being on its last limb but it has served me surprisingly well thus far.
Sure am gonna miss the small size and headphone jack when I eventually upgrade…
Same, though i have a samsung S8. At least there are some good quality Usb c dacs available like the fiio btr5, though its still annoying to buy a separate thing to have wired audio :/
As a Framework user, please review the framework laptop it's a really great laptop
try putting lightning port on the fair phone
💀💀💀
9:22 is Snowball the dancing Cockatoo. Went viral for dancing to the Backstreet Boys and was on international news.
Phone guy, how much would it cost you to replace my s23 ultra front glass?
Everytime he tapped the cameras with the screwdriver I felt naturally uncomfortable and was almost pleading he stops lol
Hi 👋 do you mind having a Samsung A54 opened up and take a look inside the phone itself? Or might as well try the Redmagic 9 that has a transparent background.
Can you use an iPhone without the back glass. Meaning can you remove the back glass and instead put a skin on it. Would that make the iPhone less heavy. I mean I don't see any use with an extra glass on the back. 😕
What’s the video at 2:20
the problem is that there's no IP rating with modular phones today. my 400$ a54 submerged accidentally and still works fine.
I think the Claim that the SoC is futureproof is because it's one of qualcomms iot/edge SoCs, which get longer driver Support. If you use one of those in for example a remote locstion, lets say as part of a weather Station on a mountain top, you don't want to get a new one brought up there every few years, just because the thing doesn't get any more support
Hey so, i have some questions. I have been a bit carless with my ipad, and cracked the screen. Then cracked it again, and its gotten to a bit of a bad point. The internal screen has no damage, just the glass cracked. How much would it cost, mainly. It is a gen 8 apple ipad large, i am pretty sure. And also how can i get it to you if so?
Bro i watched this 2 mins after it got uploaded the whole comment section is scams bro google needs to worth on the bot situation 😭
Nah. More Bots, more Ads. That’s the way to go. /sarcasm
For this price they should fix the bezels
Hey I have an iPhone that fell in a sink 3 years ago it’s just been sitting there can you fix it?
How's the software support? Does come with Google Play or does it have it's own app store?
its running android so yes
We need their phones in USA asap it’s too cool
The CPU is not standard for smartphones. This one is used normally for industrial applications. The advantage is that CPUs for industrial applications have longer service lifes from the side of the producer.
Why is there a third circle on the back cover next to the 2 camera lenses?
At least we can give Samsung and Apple credit for at least including a charging cable. If that's actually the case, and they didn't actually include one.
Imo it should be a free addon, like when you buy it you check the box for cable or even a full charger. I don't need it but having the option would be nice for those that don't want to get some third party one or the expensive first party one (looking at you apple!)
I do not know how much of 750 usd goes to employees and sustainable recycling and chain supply. But I hope It's as they advertise.
Hi, i have a phone dropped in water😢, i was hoping that you eould be able to fix it, cause i have some imp data in the phone, please rply
Hey my iphone xs has alot of ghost touchss. It randomly clicks at any place and sometimes i got trouble bcz of it. Can you tell how to fix or I need to change screen?? 😢
I cant even type bcz of it somehow i typed all this by spending hours 😢ye
You didn’t want to guess the song 3:43
I wish they put a charger in the box.
fairphone reminds me of pear phone from plainrock124 or a show..
Fairphone keeps getting better and better for every generation.
I wish removable batteries returns
What's up with the software? Is it stick android? or are they staying with AOSP..or /e/ ?
It’s a modified Android OS I’m pretty sure, but I think they work through Murena to sell Fairphones with with eOS as well.
Hey man your videos are awesome I love learning about tech. Been a tech fan since me and my dad built windows 95 desktops. I just have one very big question. Is it hard to fix the bottom glass off an Apple Watch Ultra? And would it be better to just get a new one or just repair the one I have? I appreciate you and your videos bro
I haven’t done it before, would make for a cool video. But based on what I’ve seen no not at all, just difficult to retain that water resistance after
I was about to bought the fairphone but the lack of 3.5mm jack was a dealbreaker.
How much is this phone?
Can s23 ultra lcd work if i replace the old frame in the new frame, because my lcd dont come wid a frame
Customs opened my iphone 15 pro last week
I was wondering if you can put a iphone 14 pro screen on a original 14. Can you try that if its possible?
Please do a review on iPhone 14 Pro camera over processing images and sharpening it out how to fix it
Is there away I can contact you to see if my iphone 11 pro is fix able so I can ship it
