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?

If the palm pre had better build quality and wasnt tied down to sprint in the US I sometimes wonder how things would have played out. It was a better OS than android(especially since it was competing with the g1).

Yeah, I remember some noise around that, which is probably why they made the Pixi with a lot fewer moving parts after that. For what it's worth, my Pre stood up great and was still in good shape when I upgraded away from it.
