The Fairphone 5 is less about what comes in the box and more about what you get over the years (www.theverge.com)

Fairphone’s latest repairable device is for people who hate saying goodbye to an old smartphone more than they like buying a new one.

I'm also very excitied to see what 2027 brings as that is the year manufacturers are required, if they want to sell in the EU, to make their phones extremely repairable.

Now that is something I did not know. Now I'm also very excited.

I expect these companies will still be on top even if they made phones repairable. Like for example, you can only buy parts from official store or else phone will not work
