Each one comes with a > screwdriver." I looked at their website. The Fairphone (Gen. 6+) is 649 euro. 12 GB RAM, CPU Snapdragon® 7s Gen 4. Gen 6 is 599 euro. So it's not a cheap phone. As for the replaceable battery: <https://www.ecopv-eu.com/en/blog-en/replaceable-smartphone-batteries-2027-eu-regulation/> Starting in 2027, there will be a noticeable change for smartphones in the EU: The removable battery is making a comeback. What used to be standard is returning due to legal requirements for new models. What I also don't like is that they're working with Klara. I know young people who are in debt because of Klara. Buying stuff with money they don't have. -- s|b
