It is worth noting that both the hardware and software of Fairphone is heavily dependent on a Chinese company T2Mobile.

For those looking to avoid both US and Chinese companies, then the Jolla phone is the way to go.

They have a "fair labor" agreement with China so that it is as ethically sourced as possible. People can't just get anything somewhere else. They are at least trying.

    They also set up an initiative around the fair extraction of cobalt.

    For the specs alone it is an expensive phone, but well worth it to me.
    I do somewhat miss the HD haptics from my previous Samsung.
