@ChristophWendel Why "(not the Fairphone 6)" ?
Show threadChristoph WendelJun 26, 2025
@Germo Fairphone tries to develop a phone that can successively be improved with new modules that can replace older modules and are compatible with each other and with the older chipset.
This would contrast with the paradigm of various versions of phones that are incompatible with each other.
So, in the ideal case, there would only be a Fairphone (with more or less differing ingredients), not several versions of Fairphones.

@ChristophWendel Nonsense.
The parts off the Fairphone 6 don't fit my Fairphone 4, or vice versa.

@Germo Yes, exactly this is the problem. In the past, the phone versions have been incompatible with each other.
According to Fairphone, this is to be resolved in the future. There won't be several versions any more, but only one phone with several possible internal chips and modules.
