Thoughts on fairphone 6? (sopuli.xyz)

Been looking at the Fairphone 6 and damn, support until 2033? That's actually insane.

The whole replaceable parts thing is pretty sick too. Battery goes bad? Just swap it instead of dropping $800 on a new phone or getting the battery replaced for $100

Probably gonna throw /e/OS on it too because why not.

What's everyone else using? Anyone actually have experience with Fairphone or am I just getting hyped over nothing?

Honestly, I never really cared how I treat my batteries. Neither in my phones, or in my other mobile devices. Just plug in or put it on the wireless charging pod and forget about it. It was always other parts that failed before I noticed something related to the battery.

It’s not 2006 anymore. Batteries and battery management systems have matured – regardless of what “popular tech” magazines and video creators habitually proclaim.

Worry less – and enjoy your device more :)
