Fairphone has released a new phone, the Fairphone 6. Fairphone promises its new phone will get eight years of software updates, including an eyebrow-raising seven major Android system upgrades. Indeed, you can still buy replacement cameras and screens for the Fairphone 2, which was released in pre-Trump, pre-Brexit 2015. Its own reports tell us Fairphone sales have flatlined at around 100,000 a year. Put 100,000 phones in a room and it will seem like a heck of a lot.
