It seems that Fairphone will finally end the Fairphone 3 (and 3+) support in August after 7 years.
I am still using my FP3+ daily - the only thing that has gone wrong with it was that I wore out the USB connector with cheap charging cables… so a new bottom connector (and a spare battery, just in case) and I’m all good again…
… which means, I might not be buying another phone for another couple of years yet, let’s see if it’ll make 10 years with LineageOS, etc!
I’m sure there’s other phones still chugging along…
Is this the one with no 3.5mm jack so you need to get new ones every 6-12 months? No company can talk about e-waste superiority and still crutch on battery earbuds.
My current wireless buds are 3 years old, almost used daylie and still running fine with good battery life etc. That’s much longer than any headphones with cable lasted for me and I always bought quality headphones. The wire always broke at some point.
On the other hand there’s more electronics and batteries inside wireless headphones so yeah…
( I still like the headphone jack and I’m sad that it’s almost gone )
Yep, it has one… and… it’s replaceable in case it gets damaged, or the camera lens gets foggy.

I have a Fairphone 3, and it definitely does have a headphone jack (unless there are other versions of it that don’t)
