What is it?
The Fairphone 6 is a smartphone you can fix yourself with nothing more than a screwdriver.
Why is it cool?
Because it’s proof that doing the right thing can still feel slick. It’s made from over 50 per cent recycled materials yet packs proper kit — a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, 8 GB RAM, a 120-Hz OLED screen, dual 50 MP cameras, and a battery you can swap in minutes. Plus, it comes with a guarantee of eight years of updates — longer than most phones (and some relationships) last.

Is it expensive?
At €599 (around Rs. 70,000), yes. But think of it as paying upfront to never beg an ‘authorised service centre’ again.
