While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys' opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

Even though I really want to support them, I don't think I could get used to it. I really hate large phones, I tried to get used to them but eventually I always switched back. That is the dealbreaker for me, but I also don't like that it has a slower processor, worse cameras, and worse battery life than my 3 year old phone.

There are things missing from this that I want but the better sourcing and the dedication to a responsible platform makes me want to get one. I'm in the states though so I have to get a reshipper in order to get one which really sucks because it's going to jack up the price anywhere from 40-100 euros.
