Update 1
I see a framerate/refresh rate bug that occasionally locks the framerate at a low value upon unlock. Fixing it requires a lock/unlock cycle.

I know Fairphone would probably be quite expensive even for the price it offers if it ever came to my country, but for the update cycle they offer and repairable build (looks at my broken screen of old Nokia), it actually makes sense. I don't particularly need the highest end specs, I just need a mid ranger phone that's sufficiently fluid and Fairphone fits the bill.
In fact, I was more intrigued by their earbuds. IIRC, they are the only one with a replaceable battery. For a set of wireless ones, that is a huge step. I don't think their sound profile was/is as good as Sony's or Sennheiser's but the simple fact that they don't have to end up as e waste makes them way more value for money in the long run.
This is why I got a Framework laptop, and why I wouldn't mind getting a Fairphone. I'm tired of planned obsolescence, and the e-waste it needlessly creates.
