    I’m european, so for me it’s easier to buy it, however I’m sad about the fact that mid range phones are now 600€ or whatever. That is a new low for consumers…

      I mean, this one is 600€ because it’s from a small, low volume company, is highly repairable and invests in a bit more ethical materials. You can still find decent midrange phones for e.g. 300€. My friend got a Xiaomi, idk which one exactly, for 300€, and its performance is about on par with my Fairphone.

        Totally. I would much rather buy a Fairphone TBH, I don’t think it’s such a high price to pay for what it’s offering, but I guess phone prices are not what they used to be anyways.
