    Funny how a single, relatively tiny company that tries to do things more ethically can move the entire industry. We really need more companies like Fairphone.

      To be fair I think this is aimed at matching or surpassing Apple, pretty sure Fairphone has nothing to do with this

        Apple updated the iPhone 6 this year. Google doesn’t seem that ambitious.

      Apple has been doing 7 years of support for a while now since the XS and XR (i.e. since 2018). They get a lot of bad rep but they’ve been pretty impressive regarding software support.

      I’m eyeing up a Fairphone 5 for my new travel handset though (need something easily repaired by myself and that can take a beating) but I’m a little let down by only 5 years software support guaranteed. Fingers crossed it ends up more than 5 in reality - 2TB storage should mean it’ll be an amazing offline mapping device for years to come!

        Apple never really announced a commitment to supporting devices for 7 years though, it’s just something they happen to do
