“We just gave the Fairphone 4 a revolutionary update, with a completely refreshed camera experience, and we couldn’t be prouder.”
The Fairphone 4 was released in summer 2021 and has been superseded by the Fairphone 5, but this major update addresses one of the biggest complaints about the device since day one – the camera.
I’m still on a Fairphone 4 – in fact, in December it surpassed all my previous smartphones as the one I’ve owned and used the longest since smartphones became a thing. However, I’m on CalyxOS and have always used a GCam port for taking photos. So I’m not sure if I will get this camera software update or if I have to move back to the (buggy) stock Fairphone OS to see the changes.
How has your experience been so far? I might get the fairphone 6 as my next phone (if it releases in like 3-5 years)
I have a Fairphone 4 since release. There where some bugs for the first couple of months. Now everything works as it should and I have no complaints regarding day to day usage. I am not using my phone for much more than messaging, navigation and some light web browsing though, so my experience might not be representative.
