  • I'm currently in the market for a new phone, but not sure if i want a fairphone 5 or a pixel 8
    I want a

    • microSD slot
    • headphone jack
    • customROM support (for de-googling/and root)
    • decent picture quality
    • I like performance but it doesn't have to be the very very latest
    • the device should be case-friendly
    • should not exceed rougly 165x75mm

    with fairphone it seems i have to pay out the nose, but get less picture quality, less custom rom support for the microSD slot
    with a pixel I support google instead of local companies and fairer trade, get better images, better custom ROM support and will lack a microSD slot

    may be that I'll decide by picture quality of Fairphone 5 vs Pixel 7, and if the Fairphone can hold its own, I might choose that

  • I am a bit disappoited about the CPU and the substantial price hike, but most af all the size increase. Is there any market research at all indicating that customers want 6"+ displays?
