The new fairphone 5 came out, it looks cool but the price is really, really high..

If it's a phone that can really last 10 years it could be good, but is that true? Is it worth it? I could get the one with /e/os from Murena because i want a degoogled phone with a bootloader locked, but is it usable on a daily basis?

Ive been wondering what stops people to mod their phone for wireless charging

From the tear downs I've seen with wireless charging it's actually a pretty sizable and complicated addition to just slap into a phone that's already had it's space optimized. I'm sure there's work arounds, but with so many various models and configurations I doubt you could create a one-size-fits all mod that would be popular/easy to implement.

Fair, but with how moduler the fairphone's are, i kinda expected somebody to have made it possible :p
