The Fairphone 5 is modular, made with recycled & fair materials and fair working conditions. I review the phone, the company behind it, the sustanibilty claims & explain their shortcoming.

I disagree with citing Framework for now since they’ve only existed for 3 years. They are certainly exciting and genuinely seem to be dedicated to long term support and repairability but in my opinion they need to exist longer than that before they can be cited as example of supporting a device for a very long time.
Even if they shut down today, the parts are out there. You can swap in from a donor laptop in ways that would be impossible for most others. Not to mention the fact that the critical parts are upgradable with standard parts from 3rd parties.
They supported the same hardware upgrade cycle for three full generations.
Even if they don’t keep going forever, they still succeeded in a huge way.
