A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Also:

  • lack of 3.5mm jack
  • EVEN BIGGER size

At this point, they're just following the trend.

It's not bigger, it's even a bit thinner than fairphone 4. Screen is slightly bigger though

With bigger they probably didn't mean the thickness, but it's size. Width and height. Personally I wouldn't even mind if it would be thicker.

10.5mm thick.

Fairphone 4 was 10.5mm thick.

Much thinner, yes.
