Good job there, still would be aware of that click/pop.

Nothing to worry about that pop, it seems that the bezzel on the left side is kind of defected by the previous owner. Won't be looking into that :^)

On a different unit, the marking was UAAC CEH, yours is UAAF CCH. I'm leaning towards OnSemi's FUSB302BMPX with top mark "UA" in WQFN14 package, described as Programmable USB Type‐C Controller w/PD. I found one listing on Aliexpress with markings UAAD GNB in matching font, so I'm fairly confident that's it. Please comment if you decide to replace it!

I salute your ability to find chips! I have already taken a few parts from the fnirsi donor, but i think we can for sure revive it. I'm going to order it in December and do a video next year when I'm back in my lab :^)

When disassembling you managed to be much more careful than I was, any ideas for reattaching the display ribbon cable? All I got from their support was along the lines of "don't do that" and that disassembly is not allowed.
@StonelabАй бұрын
Their display is made in a way that you must desolder the ribbon cable (from what I understood, so if thats the case), its really not a good design in terms of repairability. I dont have any videos soldering them but you can try looking up "soldering ffc connector" on youtube. That ribbon is right below the screen, so be careful with your soldering iron because you will melt its frame in a second.

WTF? Bad fingerprint sensor? I own my fp5 for over 9 month now and I can tell that the fingerprint sensor isn't bad! Actually, I like the position as well as the performance of it. I never had problems unlocking it. It works much better than on Samsung Galaxy S20, where the sensor was indeed a pain

Fairphone should really go the Framework route and offer upgradable components rather than LTS ones, it doesn't matter that the LTS chip will get 10+ years of support, if its already slow *now,* most ppl prob wont be using it in 5 years, and since they didn't make parts cross-compatible, everything will become e-waste.

Other than fairphone what flagship android phone do you recommend, repairability wise?
@Stonelab4 ай бұрын
Currently daily driving a Pixel 7a. It costs 2 times less, original parts are available from ifixit (including guides for repair). Good brightness, comfortable to hold, display finger print scanner (which is a hit or miss), nice speakers, camera is in the top 10. Most importantly - Graphene OS (if you are into privacy and custom ROMs). The phone still makes me happy and absolutely delivers. Currently its also greatly priced as its been live for a few years, might be discontinued soon, but I don't think there is anything else on the market that I would recommend. I'm not a very big phone person, i only use it for greyjay and signal, so can't really give much on performance. Hope this helps :^)

How do you remove the function row of keys on a modern thinkpad?
@steaker-gi9uw7 ай бұрын
I eventually figured it out. The delete key has a stabilizer bar under it on the bottom side of the keycap that goes from edge to edge. Once that's disconnected then release the : looking clips from the top near the center then slide the key down and off.

A phone without 5G that you are supposed to use for 10+ years would have been a bad decision, though. 5G is superior in many ways, not just bandwidth. The cost of the phone is not that high if you consider the relatively cheap replacement parts. A fair comparison to the iPhone for example would be to add Apple Care to the price, which is another 200€ (and only lasts 2 years, and you still have to pay at least 30€ for repairs). The Fairphone is one of the cheapest phones if you add at least one display-damage and a battery replacement during its entire lifetime. Repairs are not even considered for most phones after 3 years. Great review!

The FP5 supports 5G, I remember there was even a Software update that fixed a random crash that could occur, when switching from 4G only mode (which is enabled by default) to 5G mode.
@dontmindme87098 ай бұрын
Nice comparison! It seems like the FP5 is a good iteration from the FP4, though that seems to hold up well. I'm thinking the different camera apps might influence the results too since as far as I know the Fairphone camera app is not available for use on other ROMs. Could be wrong though.

I've been looking for a replacement for my rather aged iPhone SE (2016). I really like the long-term software support and ease of repair because I really do want a phone that'd last 10+ years. I would however miss the headphone jack and small size as I'd be going from a 4" display (10.16cm) to one that's over 6.4" (16.25cm)... I had also strongly considered the Asus Zen Phone 10 for its small size or the Motorola Z4 due to its great accessories, but my concerns over the short-term software support are quite possibly deal breakers for me. I'm just stuck between a rock and a hard place at the moment. While I understand that a small phone would be financially risky for a small company like Fairphone to commit to, one can dream lol. One criticism I do have of FP is that there is a lack of backwards compatible parts; you cannot swap components like the charging port nor the cameras between the FP4 and FP5. I hope that going forward they will be able to unify parts of the design to continue using your old screen, cameras, charging port, speakers & such, like what they did between the FP3 and FP3+.

It's so tragic the ZenFone 9 and 10 we're basically impossible to recommend because of their software promises or lack thereof.

I got the Fairphone 5 at launch because my previous phone had a battery life of something like 20 minutes. So far the experience has been fairly good: Using a case gives the phone a good grip and makes it comfortable to hold. The size is something to get used to though. I can't do as many actions with one hand as I could with my old phone which was smaller. This is less comfortable. I got the first party case for free because of my early order. I would however *not* recommend anyone to buy that case! It is not only way too expensive, but it also doesn't have a lip which means the phone rests on the screen when placed faced down and if dropped on the corner it would probably slide off instead of protecting the phone. It also makes the fingerprint sensor difficult to access. I will get another case eventually. Screen protectors are also overpriced, but good third party options are hard to come by. I'm still searching. In the end, I'll be using CalyxOS for the system, and gcam for the cameras. I've already tried out the latter which has been quite good. For me that makes this phone: kinda expensive with a nice design, decent cameras, no headphone jack, unwieldy sized, privacy respecting, repairable and supported for a long time. It's definitely not the perfect phone, but there's nothing that could replace it for me.
