It seems that Fairphone will finally end the Fairphone 3 (and 3+) support in August after 7 years.

I am still using my FP3+ daily - the only thing that has gone wrong with it was that I wore out the USB connector with cheap charging cables… so a new bottom connector (and a spare battery, just in case) and I’m all good again…

… which means, I might not be buying another phone for another couple of years yet, let’s see if it’ll make 10 years with LineageOS, etc!

I’m sure there’s other phones still chugging along…

    It does depend on my day… sometimes I’m travelling, using route navigation whilst listening to my music over bluetooth all miles away from the nearest phone mast.

    Sometimes I don’t leave the house…

    A replacable battery is also smaller, cheaper and easier than a powerbank too. So it’s all win:win.
