While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys’ opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

    I never said that everybody needed a fast phone, or even that MOST people need a fast phone. I would agree that most people don’t. I was replying to somebody that said their old phone was slow, and informing them that the Fairphone is probably not a solution to that specific issue because of its budget processor. It’s not a performance phone; it’s an ethical phone that does basic things perfectly fine.

    I don’t know who you’re arguing with, and I don’t think you do either.

      I’m arguing with you, genius, because I think you’re wrong.

      There are not a “hundred obvious ways that a fast processor might benefit somebody”, as you stated. There aren’t really any good reasons. Games are a stupid reason. Everything necessary works fine with an older processor. It’s not the 2000s anymore where software bogs down any computer older than three years.
