It will be interesting to see how much U.S. interest there is in an iPhone and (Google) Android alternative that packs sustainable and ethical smarts.

I used to have a FP2 and currently have an FP3.

They're basically mid-market phones spec-wise, but at a higher price point. I'm personally happy with that, but fair warning: it doesn't perform like other phones at the same price point!

I think I'd be buying used on ebay..

they say that in the official site, it isn't a highend phone

Personally I don't need crazy specs, other than some decent longevity and durability. The most demanding thing I do is run offline maps. I'll have to look into them but so far it sounds like a good fit for me
