I bought the FP 4 in Canada. It works fine. You just can't register for the warranty. I used a UK based company that exports products to North America.
Is it still cheap, or they increase the price like x2? Can you tell us what company did you used, please? Thanks!
The site I used was Clove.co.uk. It wasn't double the price but I did have to pay duty
They make you send them photo ID which is a bit sketchy but they will legitimately import stuff
Which carrier are you using it on?
Freedom Mobile
Perfect. I want to know more. Any issues specific to Freedom that you can tell? Does VoLTE work? WiFi calling? Are you using a physical or eSIM?
Physical SIM. No issues afaik. I just broke my old phone, ordered the FP 4 as my new one, and when it arrived I popped the SIM out of the old one and into the new. Never tried wifi calling so idk
How's the battery life?
Normal I guess? Just look up the phone specs if you want to know about that sort of thing.
I have, I'm asking about real world usage on Freedom. Depending on the bands available, battery life can vary significantly between carriers for the same device. ☺️
I don't have any complaints. Battery usually lasts more than a day assuming no heavy compute usage
Great. Thanks!
I looked up the supported bands and it appears that the Fairphone 5 is compatible with T-Mobile's 5G network, barring mmwave. So if you're not fussed by >6GHz connection speeds in built-up areas, you'll be fine.
