I can see your point about the price, but I dont need to change the OS on it. They sell the Fairphone 5 both with googled android, as well as a version with /e/os.
Ohh i see what you meant now.
I do like their kission and how repairable their phone is, so if im going to get a new one i want it to be that one. As for the OS, if down the road i do decide to move away from /e/os i can look into repacing it down the road
Thoughts on lineageOS vs grapheneOS? Thinking about making the switch soon
LineageOS if you want a certain piece of hardware that is supported by them and aren't too concerned with highly technical security. Lineage is also much more flexible through custom recoveries and rootable firmware.
GrapheneOS if you don't mind Pixel devices and are interested in security above all else.
GSIs also exist. They come degoogled OOTI.
