Why are they including the samsung galaxy book, which is a laptop but not samsung phones, in a mobile phone comparison?

full score on tech sustainability for the company that removed the headphone jack at the same they they releases Bluetooth headphones while their earlier models still can't call properly! Whoohoo

Can some investor pour 100 million or something into fairphone so the phones actually become good?

[–] poVoq@slrpnk.net 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Other than being a bit thick, the Fairphone 5 is actually a very good phone.

[–] myfavouritename 3 points 1 month ago

Totally agree. I prefer my Fairphone to nearly any other phone I've owned.

It takes a lot of work and time to build smartphones.

The Pixel and the iPhone weren’t built overnight.

I find it difficult to believe every chinese phone maker is evading taxes. It's also questionable how they manged to give an employee owned company, Huawei, a 0 for company ethos.

The fact that the actual research is paywalled, and a lot of the scores seem to be about having the correct documents on your website, makes me a little sceptical of this.

Being employee owned doesn't magically make you a good company

Worthless table, biased as fuck.

Dang, wish I had enough money to afford an ethical phone =(

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 3 points 1 month ago

I wish I could pay more to make a phone I am buying more ethical.

Pixel being that low with long term software support seems whack as fuck.

[–] kittenzrulz123@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How is Google Pixel that low? They have good software support and support third party roms like GraphineOS better than nearly any other manufacturer.

Software support doesn't excuses oor worker treatment
