Do these things really deliver on their promise? Did anybody have one for multiple years? Is it really easily repairable? Is it more durable than your average smartphone?

I just updated my FP3 to Android 13 yesterday. I love it. It's still running like new. Software aside, I'd say it's physically as durable as most phones, but I can easily replace any part that might break, since it's made in such a modular design. Heck it even came with a screwdriver to make it easier.

Do you know how much more support it will get? FP2 lasted forever.

Sorry, can't answer that as my crystal ball is broken at the moment.

Don't make me go and see if there's anything about it on their website!
