Fairphone wants to change the way we think about smartphones. It wants us to think about where the components are sourced and make sure manufacture has as little impact on the environment and human rights as possible.
The Amsterdam-based start-up scored a fair success with its first phone and now it's unveiled the Fairphone 2, with a pricetag of 530 Euro (about £370).
The phone is...well...fairly uninspiring in design, but under the hood is where it shines.
The specs are midrange, but each of the components is modular and can be - fairly - easily be replaced. The aim is to make the device last longer.
It comes loaded with Android 5.1 Lollipop.
The Fairphone 2 is now up for preorder here with delivery expected in November. The company is looking for 15,000 people to sign up.
