You really don't want /e/ on Fairphone. That's frankly worst of both worlds.
Insecure hardware with limited patches and updates, running insecure software with much patches skipped or delayed.
Most recent fairphone is based on Android 15, while 16 is available from mid-2025. Yes, that matters, releases is not only eyecandy, but also some security patches (ie: not many patches are back ported from 16).

So, I'd rather have second hand debloated midrange Motorola thank /e/, even less so on Fairphone.
