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…



My phone released 10 years ago, runs fine idk lgtm, super fast with native apps but browser struggles unless I stop telegram and shit via the little dropdown (introduced Android 13). I don’t even use it as a phone lol, no SIM, just 2FA and osu!stream. I have a few backup phones (including 16 and 17 year old ones) in case I actually want the phone part of them; too bad I can’t chat on ICQ and download game demos on these anymore.
