I'll add to your list of fairphone shortcomings the lack of a headphone jack. I really don't buy their excuse that including one would make the phone too large to be commercially viable.
- Tade0 3y agoEspecially that Sony still includes one in a smaller, lighter device. Not to mention all the previous generations of phones that had it.
- criddell 3y agoSo what do you think the real reason is?
- autoexec 3y agoI couldn't say... most likely they just don't see it as a priority, but I'm sure that not including one lowers their costs and takes less effort which could be a motivator.
- caoilte 3y agoi think the reason is fair, but unfortunately it is a dealbreaker for me. i would definitely have got one earlier this year if it had had one.
- orthecreedence 3y agoSame. I've been extremely resistant to any device without a headphone jack. I don't get this weird obsession with removing them. Apple made the idiotic decision originally because they have this weird air of "knowing better than you" but what I don't get is why other manufacturers followed suit. Oh well.
