I ordered a Fairphone 4 and had it shipped over to the US before they officially supported US carriers and got their reseller state side to fix some minor issues.
And its also cute I get to play the "Organic" card for a piece a tech. The device itself is good enough and with the repairability focus I can take my battery out as a party trick. (I have seriously done this, it works best for Iphone people)
How is camera on that? I remember earlier Fairphones were pretty bad in this regard, which was a deal breaker for me.
If the camera is that important, then look for a phone where the camera is the primary feature. Samsung has some nice ones these days, Fairphones offerings are generally average across the industry, many claim they are over priced, but that is due to their picky component/vendor selection (See their attempts at ethicaly sourced parts).
It's not that it's that important, but what I saw from Fairphone 1 or 2 (I don't know which model exactly, maybe even 3) was really underwhelming. Not that my current phone makes epic photos, otoh it cost me about third of a Fairphone. Their mission is great and that's why I'd consider phone from them. I wouldn't mind slower CPU or less storage for my needs, but not improving camera from my current phone doesn't make sense for me to switch.
