▲ 208 ▼ Fairphone 5 Announced! (shop.fairphone.com) submitted 2 years ago by shaked_coffee@feddit.it to c/android@lemdro.id 85 comments fedilink hide all child comments Looks like a new model for the Fairphone has been announced! What do you think about it? Personally I love the fairphone project but after having tried GrapheneOS on my Pixel 6a it would be hard to move to a different OS
[–] notepass@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago (2 children) If you are used to it, probably. I know that my pixel 4a is slowing down after 3 years. But I am just used to the speed, so it is okay for me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Mentando@feddit.de 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I don't really feel that my 4a slowed down, but the battery is degraded for sure. Battery life was never amazing, but now it's just bad. So this is why I am looking at the Fairphone: If I could just swap my battery easily, I would just continue using my 4a. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] notepass@feddit.de 1 point 2 years ago The battery on my 4a is down to 66% capacity. It does feel slower with newer apps, as those need more power. permalink fedilink source parent [–] gelberhut@lemdro.id 0 points 2 years ago Yes. This is more or less my view as well. it could be technically usable in 8 years, but very few people would accept this experience. And I do not think that a noticeable percentage of fearphones 5 will be in use in 7 years. permalink fedilink source parent
