Not one mention of fairphone? Not fully modular but it definitely ticks all the boxes for repairability and sustainability

Ara was pretty cool. I really like the idea, but I was never clear on what the mods would contain.

A couple are obvious: biggest batteries and fancier cameras, but what then? I can see enthusiast stuff like an IR camera, and maybe some nonstandard radios. But is that enough to appeal to most consumers?

I’d imagine it being a hit during the early 2000s.
Nowadays in the 2020s though? Hardly. :/
