And the software issue angle is valid, unfortunately. After my Fairphone 5 was permanently bricked by a firmware update I’ll be holding off on Fairphone for a good while. Apparently the issue I had was common (lots of people talking about it in the forums) but Fairphone support took six weeks to even acknowledge my issue and never actually sorted it. Dead at 18 months. I ended up claiming on my insurance and buying a Pixel.
