Fairphone isn't super profitable. They just scrape by with not too much growth. The big companies probably simply understand that it's just cheaper and more profitable to manufacture tons of e-waste and get consumers to buy a new one every year. Hopefully fairphone will be more competitive as new repairability and recycling regulations come into force.
