Review: Fairphone 5

 

Boasting ethical manufacturing, easy repairability, and industry-leading software support, this is the moral smartphone choice.

Easy to repair. Ethical manufacturing. At least eight years of software support. Good display. Swappable battery.

Bulky. Middling performance. So-so camera. Not sold in the US.

Fairphone 5 Review: Sustainable design, easy repairs, and a few trade-offs

 

Fairphone 5 stands out as the most sustainable & repairable phone, all while offering great performance. Learn more in our detailed Fairphone 5 review

Comfortable grip and sleek design ; Simple to take apart and fix ; Durable with IP55 rating despite being openable ; Impressive battery life

Not-so-powerful processor ; Cameras could be better

The Fairphone 5 is the most repairable phone we've tested, and it looks just like a modern flagship. It's powerful, has a great battery, and a good camera.

Long update life ; Recycled materials ; Easily repairable

Expensive for what you get ; Thicker than other phones ; Average camera performance

Fairphone’s latest smartphone is a big jump over the Fairphone 4, and has an approach to the materials it’s made from, its repairability and its software support that’s refreshing for an industry that often treats these high-tech pocket marvels as...

Fairphone 5 review: A matter of priorities

 

The latest Fairphone packs some welcome improvements, with the same interesting drawbacks.

Superb repairability ; Nice simple design ; Solid performance for now ; Supply chain accountability is second to none ; Five-year warranty, eight-year software support

Unlikely to feel snappy in a couple of years ; Pretty expensive compared to competitors

The fifth Fairphone is the best yet - that's clear. Its credentials are also more impressive than ever, and its aims are utterly laudable. If you want a sustainable and fairly-made phone, this is the best choice out there. Its price means that you're...

Fairphone 5 review: fixes up, looks sharp

 

The ethical, easy-to-repair Fairphone 5 is easier to recommend to regular phone shoppers, not just environmentally conscious ones

Super-easy repairs ; Much improved screen ; strong environmental message

Cameras aren’t much cop ; Mid-tier performance CPU ; Merely OK battery life

It won’t win many tech Top Trumps, but Fairphone 5 brings its maker’s environmental and ethical ambitions more into the mainstream than ever
