@Canning1452 @GrapheneOS @maumau @BryanGreyson @fairphone I'm going to wait and see what actually comes about it.

  • I just hope it isn't some glued-shut unrepairable design, but rather something that has the same connectivity & I/O options as my #FP3plus (3,5mm TRRS jack, DualSIM & microSD)...

I'd even prefer a #degoogled version of that!

Doof nur dass #Fairphone das nach dem #FP3plus #downgraded hat...

As much as I dunk on #Fairphone for #downgrading every device since the #FP3plus, they at least live the "#SchematicsOrDie!" principle and actually deliver #Schematics, #BoardView and #ComponentList on their website in a publicly accessible #PDF...

youtube.com/watch?v=EAogtqyN22M

In all seriousness tho: they ain't perfect but the best there is in terms of "you csn buy this right now in stores" kinda brand that isn't some obsure crowdfunding thingy but has an actual track record!

  • Also shoutout to #LouisRossmann for releasing an addendum on his own...

@eri even for a #Laptop or #Tablet I consider the #FrameworkDesktop a total "#WontBuy!" on my end, as it has less #Upgradeability and #Repiarability than a #Lenovo #X230Tablet or #Fairphone #FP3plus, mich less anything I consider "#Desktop" hardware.

  • Seriously, @frameworkcomputer could've chosen so much better options or just done some sort of Mounting, adaptors & I/O shield to mount a #FrameworkLaptop mainboard and expand it's I/O to be on-par with a #MacMini and people would've happily accepted that.

It's really sad when #DIYperks put in more effort than an entire company at designing a Desktop!

@hikari I still rock my #Fairphone #FP3plus, but if I had to buy a new phone I'd choose the #FP5 hands-down....

@necrosis ich mag mein #FP3plus.

Dabei will ich nicht viel:

  • Kleines, aktuelles #Android (vorzugsweise ohne #Google!)
  • 3,5mm Klinkenbuchse
  • echtes #DualSIM (kein #eSIM-Müll!)
  • werkzeugfrei tauschbarer Akku
  • microSD-Slot
  • Unter € 500 Verkaufspreis

Ist das so schwer?

@OpenComputeDesign same with many other things.

Personally I'm so pissed off amidst the ongoing #Enshittification that I really need to get the #NUCbook off the ground before my #X230tablet dies.

The only option I knew was the #Fairphone #FP3plus which was discontinued, abeit it's <$500, nit $400.

  • every device after that went more expensive AND removed features like a real #DualSIM capability (#eSIM is not a replacement for a #SIM slot!)

@intelgraphy depends...

If you feel like a #pro #Linux user, you may want to consider a @PINE64 #PinePhone...

Personally, I can recommend the #Fairphone #FP3plus...

@MishaalRahman Still can't compete with @Fairphone #FP3plus, #FP4 or even #FP5

@MikaKpk Consider the @Fairphone #FP3plus.

It has #DualSIM + #microSD!

Sadly, #Fairphone did #downgrade future versions with no real #DualSIM but shitty #eSIM [put that thing on a #NanoSIM instead FFS!]...

@ainmosni I bought a @Fairphone #FP3plus new when the #FP4 was just released and I won't stop using it until there are no #Security #Updates & no #aftermarket #firmware and no replacement #batteries on the market...

#UseLonger is better than #Repair is better than #Recycle...

@stuartl To go back to the point:

I had similar issues with a @Fairphone #FP3plus battery bulging...

Fixing that costed me €34,99 with shipping to get a new #battery from #iFixit mailed to me and then just swapping it.

Like ALL ELECTRONICS SHOULD ALLOW PEOPLE TO DO!

I want #toolfree #swappable and fully removeable #batteries...

Whilst I dislike the fact that my @Fairphone #FP3plus battery was bulging into a #DangerPillow, being able to tool-free remove it and just get a replacement from #iFixit for less than the cost of labout to get it done by an #AASP on an #iPhone is a godsend.

Personally I want my devices repairable and yes, #Apple designs them to get slower and to be not repairable ON PURPOSE!

@heafnerj because there is NO EXCUSE to justify a device to be less #repairable than a @Fairphone #FP3plus...

Stuff that will inefitably fail over time and use should be toolfree swappable - like batteries, storage, SIMs...

Ordered a new #battery for my @Fairphone #FP3plus because mine is turning tiself into a #DangerPillow and fails to fit anymore...

Ordered it from #iFixit since they charge half the shipping [#DHL from #Germany instead of #UPS from the #Netherlands] and it should arrive tomorrow.

Also grabbed some tools like a glassfiber scratch pen to help #RGH3 my 360s...
