I see a framerate/refresh rate bug that occasionally locks the framerate at a low value upon unlock. Fixing it requires a lock/unlock cycle.

No questions, but I'm so fucking pissed that Fairphone is on their 6th generation and still doesn't offer them globally.
I have to replace my wife's dying phone, and it kills me that I'll end up buying some garbage, probably from Google, that will end up as garbage in a few years.
Please, bring these to Canada! ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
Buddy, I'm in Torontario guy. Bought from Clove UK for 1016 Canadian peso final-final, after DHL blood sacrifice.
I don't want to import, I want to purchase from an authorized local dealer with warranty and parts available in Canada.
Even clove says that you'll need to send the phone back to the UK, at your expense, for any warranty related work. That's not only incredibly time consuming and costly, but it would negate any environmental benefit of owning the phone!
I can't imagine how expensive and delayed parts would be, again, missing the point of having a repairable phone.
The demand for at least North American consumers is there. I wish Fairphone would just do it already.
Murena is an official authorized seller of Fairphones, but they come with e/os (you can reinstall the original if you have a computer)
Edit: Damn its available for the US but not Canada.
Got it. Yeah it makes sense for the warranty. I assumed I could get parts in Canada though. I might have jumped the gun on this one. I thought iFixit sells them and they do but I can see their site says "Not sold in Canads" for a few parts I checked just now. Hmm.
E: It seems that Clove also sells parts. I see some FP4 and 5 parts. No FP6 parts yet.
I bought my FairPhone from Clove too. It was easy and the phone works great here.
I know Fairphone would probably be quite expensive even for the price it offers if it ever came to my country, but for the update cycle they offer and repairable build (looks at my broken screen of old Nokia), it actually makes sense. I don't particularly need the highest end specs, I just need a mid ranger phone that's sufficiently fluid and Fairphone fits the bill.
In fact, I was more intrigued by their earbuds. IIRC, they are the only one with a replaceable battery. For a set of wireless ones, that is a huge step. I don't think their sound profile was/is as good as Sony's or Sennheiser's but the simple fact that they don't have to end up as e waste makes them way more value for money in the long run.
This is why I got a Framework laptop, and why I wouldn't mind getting a Fairphone. I'm tired of planned obsolescence, and the e-waste it needlessly creates.
