"Fairphone 2 came back to life… in the form of the world’s first circular microcomputer. We couldn’t be prouder of this wonderful project our partners at Citronics have been working on. And the timing of the launch couldn’t be better. With Black Friday right around the corner, it’s always good to see how we can use the growing mountain of electronic waste for something good. We sat down with Jean-Brieuc Feron, the founder of the Belgium-based low-tech consultancy, to learn more about this wonderful innovation that is literally resurrecting our old phones. "
Still looks like a rectangular microcomputer to me.
Still hoping for an eventual release in North and South America. Europeans are lucky to have something like Fairphone.
Good stuff! Imagine a world in which in a few minutes you flash your oldest smartphone and mount it on your handlebar as an ebike controller, odometer, GPS, and can easily download/view BMS diagnostics in real time with BT from your other pc/smartphone!
@pipes It is/was even relatively easy to flash an alternative #CustomRom because #FP2 is supported by OpenAndroidInstaller @openandroidinstaller.
But unfortunately #DivestOS has just been discontinued and now there is only official support for #eOS with an outdated Android version.
