Expert Reviews80
A solid repairable phone with long software support, but only a modest upgrade over the Fairphone 6 and pricey for its hardware.

What do critics say about the Fairphone 6 Plus?
TechRadar80
A decent eco-friendly phone now available in the US, though the cheaper Fairphone 6 is nearly as good.
The Verge80
A middling-but-capable Android phone that finally pairs ethical, repairable design with few trade-offs, making it a smart buy.
Tech Advisor80
A capable, sturdy mid-range phone with a lovely OLED screen and strong repairability, though not exceptional.
Trusted Reviews80
A repairability champion with a bright screen and long support, but performance trails similarly priced rivals and it lacks a telephoto lens.
Tom's Guide70
Succeeds for buyers who value repairability and longevity, but weak performance, bland design and a higher price than rivals give pause.
