Update 1

I see a framerate/refresh rate bug that occasionally locks the framerate at a low value upon unlock. Fixing it requires a lock/unlock cycle.

    It has a USB 2.0 Type C connector, unable to carry video signal in any device AFAIK

    Edit: Here's an article about USB C video

    Yes. Massive downgrade imo. I really wanna know why they did this. It cant have been thaat expensive right?

    To be fair (pun intended) very, very few people ever use the USB-C port for anything other than charging and maybe syncing photos to a pc.

    The connector itself costs like 8 bucks, I don't know how much more expensive it would be for them to design the signal integrity in their motherboard, required to carry the video stream.

    Still, for the price and for the market segment they're targeting, this and the lack of a 3.5mm jack for sound is inexcusable.

    No questions, but I'm so fucking pissed that Fairphone is on their 6th generation and still doesn't offer them globally.

    I have to replace my wife's dying phone, and it kills me that I'll end up buying some garbage, probably from Google, that will end up as garbage in a few years.

    Please, bring these to Canada! 😭😭😭

    Buddy, I'm in Torontario guy. Bought from Clove UK for 1016 Canadian peso final-final, after DHL blood sacrifice.

    I don't want to import, I want to purchase from an authorized local dealer with warranty and parts available in Canada.

    Even clove says that you'll need to send the phone back to the UK, at your expense, for any warranty related work. That's not only incredibly time consuming and costly, but it would negate any environmental benefit of owning the phone!

    I can't imagine how expensive and delayed parts would be, again, missing the point of having a repairable phone.

    The demand for at least North American consumers is there. I wish Fairphone would just do it already.

    At first congratulations to your new phone.

    A few questions:

    • Are there any notable gaps between the screen and the side? Can you e.g. put a piece of paper between it? Asking because the predecessor had these and they required cleaning from time to time as dirt accumulated in these
    • Did you test the camera yet? Are you ok with the zoom or picture quality in darkness?
    • Did you get a case? How are these available currently?
    • How is the sound quality?
    • Did you already open the backcover? Are there any difficulties in doing so?

    Can fit a sheet just about. A thicker sheet might not fit.

    • Did you test the camera yet? Are you ok with the zoom or picture quality in darkness?

    The cam is quite decent in my testing so far. Zoom beyond 2x gets ugly quickly. The system is similar to Pixel a-series. One very good 50MP sensor for everything and low zoom, and one ultra-wide for wide shots and macro. Will be testing it more but first impressions are good. I think I can live with it coming from a Pixel 8 Pro.

    • Did you get a case? How are these available currently?

    No case, Clove didn't sell one. Still in search for a case.

    • How is the sound quality?

    Not as loud as the Pixel 8 Pro but very good and loud enough. No farts or other bad speaker noises.

    • Did you already open the backcover? Are there any difficulties in doing so?

    Not yet.

    Is it pretty “snappy” ? Wondering if there is any lag time or if runs smoothly right away or what settings I got to mess with to minimize responses time.

    How do you like it so far?

    Any good/bad surprises?

    What OS/rom you planning to run or keep it stock?

    What were your motivations for getting it?

    Snappier than my Pixel 8 Pro.

    So far I like it. The screen is great. The speaker is decent. The camera looks to be fairly decent. Not Pixel 8 Pro level at zoom, but otherwise it seems comparable to some of the Pixel a-series cams I've seen. The only thing that bugs me so far is the shittier haptic feedback compared to the Pixel. 😄

    I am shocked how fast and good the power button fingerprint reader is. Especially coming off of the Pixel's in-screen reader.

    Running stock OS for now.

    Among other things, a combination of Fairphone releasing the 6 with improved camera and Google stopping publishing device code with Android 16. The future of third party OSes on the Pixel line is now in limbo. I'm still unsure how well the Fairphone will work on my carrier in Canada since it lacks one of the bands used. Seems okay for now. I'll need to take it out in the wild and see the impact on signal and battery.
