Greenwashing refers to ecological sustainability claims. Regarding the manufacturing process, Fairphone primarily claims to be more socially sustainable, not environmentally. Their ecological claims are solely based off of their phones extended software support and easier repairability, which is undeniably given.
Oh yes the large screen cracked at least twice for me and was rather expensive to replace. I also swapped the battery twice.
I like Lineage and how it extends the life of devices software wise. The Nexus 6 got Android updates up until lately but I think support is being dropped now. I am not too much of a tinkerer so I have not tried other custom roms, lineage just works for me. Also I restrict myself quite a bit more than necessary by avoiding google services and non-foss apps wherever possible. A fun experience but probably not for anyone.
Why to a loss? They should just sell it everywhere.
