I would buy one if they shipped globally and it was about 100-150€ cheaper. The specs are not worth 700€. I would also need official GrapheneOS support as well.
That's what those specs are worth if everyone who's part of it gets compensated for their work appropriately.
Imagine the price of a Galaxy S23 if Samsung actually was fair to everyone involved.
It wasn't free. You paid for it
Someone gifted you a phone and you are not paying them money at all?
They're probably talking about mommy and daddy that got them the phone. Which is why they're responding like a 5 year old.
That is no way to insult a five year old!
Agree with the message but not with the tone. I buy used phones from eBay and they are awesome. Like $100 for a newish device.
Yeah it's just crazy watching you be ableist as if you have a point
Since I can't get the Fairphone in the US, I got a Pixel 7a for $350. It's not as repairable as my ancient 3a, but if it lasts 7 years like the 3a, I'll have gotten my money's worth.
