I wanted a FairPhone, but they have yet to sell officially in the US and I couldn’t afford to deal with the potential difficulties involved with not having the right bands.
To me its a no brainer for them to start selling in the US. Brands like Framework are getting a lot of hype for their reparability and longevity. Being a mobile brand stepping in to offer a smartphone to compliment Framework’s laptops could be fantastic. Plus there’s a wave of people demanding right to repair legislation in the US, Fairphone would do well to harness that I think.
