FairPhone 6 last month, a modular design compared to its predecessor was released with a better chipset and a larger battery. This is still not the flagship Android smartphone, but the lock sales point is not performance or battery life, repairability.
Therefore, you may want to know what the people in Ifixit to say about it – after all, they defend the right to confirm people’s devices for years, and FairPhone itself is about giving people this option. Since Ifixit is the most repairable phone so far, it is all good for FairPhone 6.

Therefore, a perfect 10 of the 10 repair points, which is something that the mainstream smartphone brands can only imagine, but never succeeded, was given. FairPhone has already made its parts and repair guides for FairPhone 6, which promised to receive at least seven large Android updates and at least eight -year security patches. This is important because it is easy to repair a phone, if the software is not supported in one or two years.
The entire phone only uses T5 torx screws, so a screwdriver is sufficient to access any component. When we talk about these, it is obviously easy to replace various lice and parts – this includes batteries, cameras and the screen and the USB port. There is no glue inside, which makes repairs a breeze, but it means that it can only be IP55 for dust and water resistance.
