I would like to support them, but it is lacking in several features. Kinda wish they would take their modular and user-replaceable components and let us upgrade, like a better camera module for example.

that said, it’s missing the most important thing… Network compatibility.

Your example with the camera module is exactly what happened to the FP3. They released the FP3+ which featured a better camera and users of the original model could upgrade by just buying this module.

However this is definetly not the focus of Fairphone as a company as too many or regular new modules would introduce new e-waste again.
