So far the phone is performing well enough. I am experiencing a few freezes, implying immature software, but hopefully an update will fix that. Was surprised when an update was offered to the next OS... See more

Good delivery but small issues with making payment
The delivery was quick and the website well laid out.
I did have an issue with the checkout process that I have had before when using the web store to buy spare parts. At the point where the approval via a banking app is needed I have to leave the browser app to grant the approval. When returning to the browser app the transaction is gone. This leaves me in the uncomfortable position of having approved a transaction for an order that appears to have failed. This means that I have to place the order again and hope it doesn't go through twice.
This is most likely an issue with the way the interface with the 3rd party payment processor.
Easy to order
Easy to order, quick delivery. Unfortunately, the material on the phone protection cover is peeling off.
My phone arrived swiftly
My phone arrived swiftly, setting it up was easy and the packaging was minimal and fine. I'm very happy with it all in all.
Great phone, and so much better for the world
The FairPhone is a really good Android Phone - up to speed with similar phones, looks good, feels good.
But on top of all that it's much better for the word.
Delivery Difficult.
Fairphone dealt with my order very well, but UPS were not very good, they do not seem to understand what a customer needs from their automated systems. Very difficult to find a way talk to a human to explain my problem. The human only gave me half of a solution to my problem , whilst an acquaintance put me onto the real solution.
Please try using a better courier service.
Great phones by the way!

Everything ok
Online purchasing process has been easy and efficient. Very satisfied with the phone.
great ordering experience
great ordering experience, good communication during delivery although I didn't get notified that it was at the collection point.
Loose weak yellow button
1. I cannot find the "provided tool". Inside?
2. But more importantly the yellow distraction button is sloppy and weak already. And how will it last and age with a phone which is supposed to last long? So weird, why didn't you make it sturdy?

Needed new battery
Needed new battery
Ordered, received on time, replaced it within a minute, and it works. It's so simple and a huge advantage over many other devices! Good service, thank you.
It was easy to buy
Incredible custumer support!
best brand of phones
Fairphone is the best brand of phones regarding fairstainability. We are super happy with our devices!
Super easy to change the battery
Super easy to change the battery, arrived within days, and in time for a trip abroad. Massively increased battery duration (I've had the last one a fair while now) which will be really helpful while I'm travelling.
I like the company ethos
I like the company ethos, phone arrived in great condition, extended warranty and all other setup was very easy, everything just works.
Decent e-commerce
Decent e-commerce. Only UPS shipping is a bit limiting. Battery life for the Fairphone 6 is underwhelming even compared with a fairly old and used Cat S62.
Ordered a replacement battery
Ordered a replacement battery. No option to have delivered to home address. Went to collect from collection address, they said didn't have it. Cannot contact ups cannot enter a claim with ups cannot report to ups.
Money paid,No battery, seemingly no recourse,big headache.
