While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys' opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

You don't have to use Google services on the fairphone. And if you use it without those, Android is waaaaaaaaay more private than iOS.

iPhones are barely much better than Android phones for privacy or security, despite Apple's very effective marketing. They hoover up a shitload of data.
