    In general though the best thing is to just stick with your current phone if you can. Every new phone still consumes resources to produce and probably replaces some other phone which then has to be recycled or might even end up in a landfill.

      Most people will switch smartphones anyway. Nothing you or I can do about it I’m afraid.

      Better we get then hooked on fairphone then.

        That’s the best case scenario, worst case scenario however you sell to someone who otherwise wouldn’t have switched. In that case, it’s still one more new phone. And who is guaranteeing that other people will actually use their Fairphone for its whole lifetime?

        True, but I feel like selling your used Fairphone isn’t the solution to this.
