My framework was one of the best buying decisions I made. Mine came with a fan that made weird sounds so they just sent me the replacement part and I fixed it in 10 minutes. No more sending in the whole device and waiting for weeks on end.
While framekworks have virtually no drawback for me, I'm not as happy with my sustainable smartphone. I have a Shift phone (small company from Germany) that is fully user repairable. Unfortunately, the specs are only middle class, especially the camera, and the software updates are sparingly. Aside from the software updates I heard similar things from friends with Fairphones.
Yeah, right now I've got a s23 ultra and I really like it. There is too much of an advantage to the mainstream phones in camera and extra features for me to make that jump yet. I had a OnePlus with lineage before but I can't pretend I haven't enjoyed the Samsung so far. As for my Lenovo X1 Carbon I'd replace it in a second, it's still doing pretty well right now but it's absolutely not repairable and starting to show its age a bit. I've also just been lucky to not need to repair anything.
