With completely wireless earbuds, the rule is: when the battery fails, they have to be disposed of. Not so with the Fairbuds, that allow you to replace batteries in just a few seconds. Combined with a repairable design, the earbuds should therefore have an extremely long lifetime.

they sell the fairphone 4 not the 5. And while I’m not against e/os/, that’s kind of neat for me I think it’d be awesome if they sold the original model with android with all of Google Spyware lol

This is true. Hopefully they will soon sell the 5! I tossed lineageOS on mine, and have felt pleased with it.

Did you buy it from fairphone or are you saying you got the fairphone 4 with e/os/ from Mureno?

I bought the 4 from Mureno with e/os/ on it.

I’m curious what made you not like e/os/. I’m interested to try it if they do the fairphone 5

I didn’t have strong feelings about it, and had extensive experience with LineageOS. I just stuck with what I knew.

The bootloader is open so you could throw Fairphone’s Android on there no problem. I think they provide the files for that (didn’t check so don’t know for sure)
