Fairphone (Gen. 6) Will Ship in the USA in August

IMHO, this alone makes the new model worthwhile. I can't believe they didn't mention this in the announcement video.

I wish they would just make a dumb phone that was safe and secure, but I am in the minority on this one. I hope they do well, it's a beautiful idea. This is the one you can fix yourself, right?

@profgrumpypants

This is the repairable phone, yes.

I'm guessing they won't make a feature phone because that industry isn't as wasteful as the smartphone industry.

I hope they make a fair tablet, but it'd better have good I/O. **There is no reason a medium-sized device intended for media consumption shouldn't have a headphone jack.**

Oh, a fair tablet would be nice to be honest. I am not sure how much of a market there is though?
