/e/OS Is Better Than Android. You Should Try It
(www.wired.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Well then I really hope the Fairphone 5 is gonna get really long term support and start a new trend in that regard.
Just buying a new phone every 5 years isn’t sustainable!
They advert for a support between 8 and 10 years (at least 5 major version of Android, and security patches after that). I don't know their politic about the availability of the repair parts, but if it's for the same amount of time, I'll be happy.
I changed the battery and the usb port of my OP7 last year... the oneplus site didn't sell them anymore, I had to go on aliexpress to have both ... That's quite frustrating for a device that is 5 years old...
8 to 10 years is good, but it should be just a start.
I’m still using my PlayStation 3 and a computer from 15 years ago (as a backup) and I think it should be the same with smartphones
