@dl007 Nice. Still for the price I could get a really better phone. They need to lower the price.

But if you're getting a better phone much more frequently, then you're winding up spending more and having a much higher environmental/social impact.

@pingveno That's true, but still, most people are thinking like me unfortunately. Fairphone needs to find a way to make the phone more appealing to the masses. If they success and people start addopting it, competitors would have to adapt. I don't know if I'm making sense, just looking at it from a John Doe perspective.
