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?

For a regular user… basically nothing.

I quit google products and services a decade ago, so I was “relegated” to iOS, which… does basically the same exact fucking thing but better in every way. It’s spendy though. I also like their privacy stance, which is “we cost a lot but we’re not selling all of your data to advertisers”

I have not found a single thing I can’t do on iOS that I COULD on Android.

People spout WaLLeD GaRdEn and what I read is “privacy” and I’m in

They’ll complain about unauthorized developers…. Which I wouldn’t want anyway.
