More than a decade after launching in Europe, the Netherlands company is now selling its repairable phones in the US, starting with the Fairphone (Gen 6+).

        That’s not the same thing. There’s also nothing worse than being on a long journey wanting to listen to music but needing to also charge your phone before you reach your destination.

            I use one of those every night and they’re awful. I buy them 5 at a time because they’re not very durable, and you end up with this especially irritating tangle of cables.

        I don’t think it’s modular in that way
