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.
Should I eat an entire black forest cake by myself?
Have you done it before?
Back when I was young, swimming competitively, my go-to high snack was an Entemann's All Butter French Crumb Cake and a half gallon of 2% milk. 2700 calories in a clip. Literally couldn't put on weight.
But this story's going to take a turn, because let me tell you, that shit catches up, and a poor diet is hard to forget, but when you're old you do put on the weight.
So I'm going to say no, don't eat the whole thing. Eat half of it.
it depends, is it REALLY good and do you have to be anywhere for the next 4 hours or can you just lay around comatose?
How did you take a picture of your phone?
We're not doing this again
I'm invoking the mirror clause immediately.
It has a USB 2.0 Type C connector, unable to carry video signal in any device AFAIK
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! πππ
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.
I bought my FairPhone from Clove too. It was easy and the phone works great here.

I'll give a short overview of my experience with the phone thus far. In general, I'm pretty happy with it. For now it's adequately snappy. It does lag in some apps and has some odd behavior (YouTube seems to lock the refresh rate to 60 as soon as any preview starts playing, even if it's off screen, making scrolling not as smooth), but in general the responsiveness of the phone itself is very good. They have some annoying bugs. For example, they still haven't fixed the screen being locked to like 10Hz when unlocking the phone sometimes. But, in general, it hasn't really been a problem, have been using it without much issue. The most annoying part has to be the positioning of the volume buttons, for me at least. They're positioned on the left side of the phone, directly opposite to the power button, so I'm constantly taking accidental screenshots. It's extremely annoying, and I don't understand why they decided to put it there. As someone else mentioned, there are tiny gaps between the screen and the frame, as well as some other seams, so some dead skin gets in there making the phone look a bit dirty, but it isn't too bad. Double tap to wake is pretty bad, it often doesn't register double taps properly, and it often gets accidentally activated in my pocket, making the phone try to dial emergency services, forcing me to disable it.
While I have been quite critical when listing the faults, in general I'm still happy with the phone. I was actually surprised by the camera. It's nothing special, but I expected it to be worse. However, it has much beter performance than I expected, especially in low light, just that the zoom is very bad since it doesn't have an optical zoom lense. It does what I need it to while being more repairable and from a more ethical company, so if you need a mid range phone, and don't mind minor inconveniences, I'd recommend it.
At first congratulations to your new phone.
A few questions:
- Are there any notable gaps between the screen and the side? Can you e.g. put a piece of paper between it? Asking because the predecessor had these and they required cleaning from time to time as dirt accumulated in these
Can fit a sheet just about. A thicker sheet might not fit.
- Did you test the camera yet? Are you ok with the zoom or picture quality in darkness?
The cam is quite decent in my testing so far. Zoom beyond 2x gets ugly quickly. The system is similar to Pixel a-series. One very good 50MP sensor for everything and low zoom, and one ultra-wide for wide shots and macro. Will be testing it more but first impressions are good. I think I can live with it coming from a Pixel 8 Pro.
- Did you get a case? How are these available currently?
No case, Clove didn't sell one. Still in search for a case.
- How is the sound quality?
Not as loud as the Pixel 8 Pro but very good and loud enough. No farts or other bad speaker noises.
- Did you already open the backcover? Are there any difficulties in doing so?
Not yet.
Where are you? What OS?

Why is this post FILLED with AI not comments? Are the corpo platforms so bitter about federated they want to just poison it?
I thought people were just trolling since OP said "Ask me anything", are they really bots? π€
Eh, 50% of the internet is fake anyways, not too surprising if this is the case.
Anyone know if this works in Australia ? Our telcos seem to block anyrhing not sold on Australia these days. Not sure how tourists are getting on, data esims I guess.
Anyone know if this works in Australia ?
I don't. However, I do have a search engine, and I plugged in "fairphone 6 australia".
https://old.reddit.com/r/fairphone/comments/1lmcz1l/fp6_australia/
You can view the full list of what Fairphone devices are IMEI/TAC blocked on each Australian network at https://isthisphoneblocked.net.au/device-brands/fairphone
The Fairphone 6 (TAC: 35901961) is within the Optus Checker Database (3 June 2025 Dataset) and is (currently) "Device is NOT Blocked", it just doesn't have a name.
The Fairphone 6 is also not in Telstra's TAC Checker database but it's most likely not blocked (not blacklisted), however it's likely not officially Whitelisted ("Not Blocked") either, so it could be blocked at any time if the telco thinks its 'incompatible'.
Can we get a side by side photo of this with your old phone (pixel 8 pro)?
Want to see how much smaller it is and is it is small hands friendly
