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?

Ive been disappointed with fairphone 5, OS updates were late and not in full. Other security risks like the original OS signed with android test keys. I see that you want to flash another OS on there so this isn't relevant for you, but I am a bit disappointed.

    I'm 90% happy with my fairphone 5 with calyx. Only downturn is that it's too big for AFAB hands, but it's hard to find a phone that isn't these days. So, to me, there's no downsides to it compared to other phones. Id get it again simply for ethical reasons and recommend.
