In notebook land, theres Framework, whose making totally repairable and upgradeable laptops, and so far they even released alderlake upgrades for their first model, iirc. Hopefully the notion of keeping a given frame and upgrading it as you need it for years at a time catches on, and hopefully that can all spread to phones, especially as the phone market matures.
- Arnt 4y agoA few people are trying for phones too. Fairphone pushed an upgrade earlier this year for the Fairphone 2, which is six years old. Very respectable. It's Android 10 though, not 12, which makes me wonder whether they have run into the same issues as the Lineageos people (see https://lineageos.org/Changelog-26/ https://lineageos.org/Changelog-26/ for details) and that even with their dedication, Fairphone will stop before a decade has passed.
