Fairphone has launched its sixth-generation phone designed to be user-serviceable, long-lasting, and eco-friendly. The Fairphone (Gen. 6) is more compact than past iterations, with a 6.31-inch display (120 Hz OLED and FHD+). The modular design has 12 different parts that can be easily replaced, including the battery (4,415 mAh), and a back-plate system supporting fully integrated accessories like a card wallet, finger loop, or lanyard. The phone comes with a 5-year warranty. The phone is "assembled in fair factories" and made with "more recycled and fair materials than ever before". The Fairphone 6 is powered by a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor, paired with 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256 GB of storage (expandable). It has good support for US 5G and 4G networks. The main camera is 50 megapixel with a Sony Lytia 700C sensor and OIS, plus a 13 megapixel wide-angle camera. The phone also sports an IP55 rating for water, fingerprint reader, NFC, Bluetooth 5.4 LE, and Wi-Fi 6E. In the US, the Fairphone (Gen. 6) will initially be available exclusively from Murena, which loads their own /e/OS software on the device. (/e/OS is a "de-Googled" version of Android.) Murena promises five years of software updates for this phone. Murena is taking orders starting today at $899, shipping in August. It's available in white, black, or green.
