So… what the hell is a Fairphone?

It's a smartphone. A genuinely good one — it runs Android, takes lovely photos and lasts two days on a charge. You don't have to care about saving the world to want one.

The difference shows up over time: you can fix it yourself, it's supported with updates until 2033, and the materials and the people behind it are treated fairly. That's it. That's the whole trick: a phone designed to be kept, not replaced.

It comes apart

Twelve spare parts you can swap at your kitchen table with a single Torx T5 screwdriver. Cracked screen? Fixed in five minutes, for €89.95 instead of a new phone.

It stays young

Six major Android upgrades, security patches until 2033 and an industry-leading five-year warranty. Your next phone could still be this one.

It's made fair

Fairtrade gold, fairer cobalt, recycled aluminium — and living-wage bonuses for the people who assemble it. Over half the phone is fair or recycled material.

Follow the materials

Take it apart.
Put it back. Keep going.

Most phones are glued shut so you'll give up and upgrade. The Fairphone 6 opens with one screwdriver. Scroll, and watch twelve parts go their separate ways — every one of them replaceable by you.

The battery pops out. Like phones used to.

No heat gun, no glue, no prayer. Off with the back cover, out with the 4415 mAh battery. It keeps over 80% health after 1,000+ charges — and when it finally fades, a new one costs €39.95 and thirty seconds of your time.

  • Up to two days on a single charge
  • 50% charge in 20 minutes
  • Battery, screen, USB-C and back cover swap in under five minutes

One screwdriver. Zero genius bars.

Every repair starts and ends with a single Torx T5 screwdriver. iFixit gave the Fairphone 6 a perfect 10/10 for repairability — and Europe's repairability index rates it A. You don't need a appointment, a receipt or a prayer.

Fairphone spare part Industry-average repair

Supported until 2033.
Yes, really.

The average phone is abandoned by its maker after two or three years. The Fairphone 6 ships with Android 16 and is promised six major upgrades, security patches and spare parts until 2033 — backed by a five-year warranty.

  1. 2025

    Day one

    Android 16 out of the box. No bloatware beyond the Google suite and the My Fairphone app.

  2. 2026–32

    Six Android upgrades

    Major OS updates land over the air until 2032 — long after most phones stop getting one.

  3. 2030

    Warranty ends. Phone doesn't.

    An industry-leading five-year warranty — and spare parts stay on sale for years beyond it.

  4. 2033

    Still patched

    Security updates and spare parts, guaranteed until 2033. That's an eight-year-old phone, still safe.

How long would you keep it?

Drag the slider. A €599 phone you keep for eight years costs you less per year than the streaming subscription you're also paying for.

€120 per year · typical phones are replaced every 2–3 years

EU energy label for the Fairphone 6, rated class A

The Fairphone 6 carries the EU's energy label A and TCO certification — the kind of ratings fridges get, because a phone should be judged like an appliance: on how long it runs and what it costs the planet while doing it.

What's inside matters.
So does how it got there.

Every phone is a bundle of gold, cobalt, copper and rare earths dug up by someone, somewhere. Fairphone maps that whole chain — then pays to make it fairer.

Fairtrade gold — a first for phones

Fairphone is the first and only smartphone maker to put Fairtrade-certified gold in its supply chain. Miners get a fair price, safer conditions and a premium that stays in their community.

Fairer cobalt & tungsten

Cobalt and silver through Fairmined credits, tungsten from Fairmined sources — improving the mines the industry would rather not talk about.

51% fair or recycled

By weight, across 15 materials: recycled aluminium, copper, steel, tin, indium, magnesium, nickel, plastics, rare earths and zinc.

€1.25M in living-wage bonuses

Paid to factory workers since 2019. Final assembly happens in a factory that supports living wages and puts worker welfare first.

The cleanest phone is the one you don't replace.

Roughly 80% of a smartphone's lifetime CO₂ is emitted before you ever switch it on. Keeping one phone longer beats buying a "greener" one — so Fairphone builds for keeping, and takes responsibility for the rest.

29.3kg CO₂e

The Fairphone 6's full footprint — climate-conscious through Gold Standard projects that cut CO₂ and support local communities.

100%e-waste neutral

For every phone sold, one is taken back — reused, repaired or responsibly recycled. 30 tonnes of e-waste collected in 2025 alone.

2,083t CO₂e avoided in 2025

By designing for longevity and helping suppliers switch to recycled materials and cleaner energy.
