It will be on mine as well now! Here’s to hoping this boosts their sales and these kinds of companies gain traction!

Is that why they got rid of the headphone jack on the Fairphone 4?

No idea, and damn didn’t realize it’s missing headphone jack

Firstly, I didn’t know they got rid of the headphone hack. Second, they could have made their own wired headphones, or even include them with the phone. Third, I was planning on getting one so now I’m thinking of getting a previous phone.

No jack, no sale.

Yes. 100%. They removed the headphone jack at the same time they introduced their Bluetooth buds.

It’s on mine too now. That said the Amazon reviews are a bit concerning. Sound quality and control sensitivity seem to be the main issues.

Ah damn it, have to read more into those reviews before I make a buy decision. Really wanna get them and support such a company (but still don’t want a prototype-like product).

The thing is, apart from internal testers, customers have to test these prototype-like products too, for the company to get somewhere from feedback🫠

True, sadly I’m a bad tester because my standards are often low lol

the proper way to do this is giving a prototype discount

I have some of these headphone. They are good and I love supporting a company making things repairable.

Yess!! Awesome to hear that - been thinking about getting them. And agreed! The more we support such companies the more mainstream this hopefully becomes.

I use them every day. This is the case I keep them in: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07ZKXQB56
