Just buy a Fairphone end enjoy the exact same thing

Fairphone sounds great but currently has a poor price to performance ratio

You pay extra because the materials were sourced through moral means and not sweatshops.

I for one like that feature.

I do too, but it's a hard sell for the masses right now. I want Fairphone to succeed but it's tough.

Their subscription program is even less competitive.

I only stick to my Note 9 (peak Samsung) because of stylus support that no one else offers. When Fairphone stars offering as awesome stylus support as Samsung does, I'm moving immediately.

Did they make a Fairphone Fold yet? If not then I'm not leaving my Z Fold 3 anytime soon. I regret not waiting for the Pixel Fold...

I don't think they will, any time yet anyway.

Looking at how my FP3 and the newer FP4 is assembled, I don't think they can make a foldable and easily repairable device right now (didn't stop them releasing those unrepairable Earbuds, but oh well)

There's also the software aspect too
