€700?
Yeah nah, hard pass. The €470 for the FP3+ was already somewhat above my personal limit for a smartphone. Especially given that I install custom OS’ any way to remove even more Google crap, so their extended support is irrelevant to me.
Got one.
me too, are you happy, noticed anything strange? don’t have a case yet and I’m afraid to drop it all the time.
I’m a solutely happy with the phone. The camera ist perfect for me and I got a clear case (non-fairphone company). I don’t know what you mean by ‘strange’?
The improvement over the 4 seems very minimal? I don’t understand what justified this new version, it’s just better specs without fixing or providing a different solution to notable issues like the size (a smaller version would have been great, the 4 is huge) or the absence of jack (didn’t expect it, but could have been a pleasant surprise). Seems like a financial decision similar to any other phone maker and not very aligned with the sustainable values.
what is the motivation behind not adding jack
I think simplifying the design thinking that most of their non-nerd ecolo customers have moved passed this archaism. Eventually it was the main grudge against the FP4.
