It is worth noting that both the hardware and software of Fairphone is heavily dependent on a Chinese company T2Mobile.

For those looking to avoid both US and Chinese companies, then the Jolla phone is the way to go.

Not a big deal for me as I customize every phone that I own anyway, so for me I'm just using Lawnchair and that works perfectly for me even on this phone so I don't see an issue with it.

Are tutorials to do this available?

I am very relatable regarding this change. i never know the settings page i need to go in order to change the launcher. I go to the settings and in the search bar, i input 'default'. In the result there should appear a Default home app. click that. If you have another launcher installed it should appear on the list.

Installing a new launcher? Just install it from the app store and then activate as your default launcher in androids app settings. It's just that simple.
