No earphone jack again. That's a bit sad. Even though I mainly use BLT earbuds, I still sometimes wish I could use my wired headphones. It's just a small inconvenience

OTG compatible is a rare feature, I have an endoscope camera that uses OTG, but not a compatible phone.

Also, no mention of a headphone jack.

Honestly, this might be the first fairphone which I would classify as good enough for daily use.

Ok but what about a headphone jack ?

FP would be a good choice for Graphene.

Unfortunately Graphene have said they will only use pixels (or potentially their own phone in the future) because no other phones have the Titan M2 security chip.

It's a shame though, because I'd love to have Graphene on it.

I just want them to make a true flagship phone. I personally wouldn't mind paying extra for a more ethical phone, if it had all the bells and whistles and wasn't half obsolete straight out of the box.

[–] __dev@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

A big problem they have is that they have to rely on Qualcomm for security updates, and the flagship chips simply don't get 8+ years of support. Fairphone uses Qualcomms IOT chips, which come with much longer support.

Fairphone is probably going to be my new phone when I upgrade.
