Fairphone Is Finally Selling Its Repairable Phone in the US
www.wired.com/story/you-can-finally-buy-a-fairphone-a-sustainable-repairable-smartphone-in-the-us/€600 is the minimum for a Fairphone. A new cheap one by a major brand would be €150. I’d definitely like some privacy on my phone but damn.
It’s 150 because they’re subsidizing the phone so you’ll pay for service, addons, and so they can sell your data and bloatware. Fairphone isn’t expensive, the other phone is artificially cheap.
You’re right. They do get us with all the bloatware and other nefarious stuff. Time to start saving.
