Regularly replacing our phones takes a toll on our wallets and the environment. We should instead take care of them as we do our cars. I agree with the article. I would love to see more companies created that manufacture highly modular and hackable phones like the Fairphone. Fairphone is only available in the EU and not in the US. Every component in it can be replaced. I see that as an opportunity to have individual parts that can be upgraded over the phones lifetime and perhaps even custom modules created that meet the specific needs and desires of the phone owner. Don't like the OS? Just replace it without having to run some janky software and risk bricking the phone.
