Absolutely agree. Unfortunately, Fairphone specs last I looked were a bit behind everyone else.
On the plus side though, there is also Motorola, who plan to release GrapheneOS phones. Really looking forward to that actually (hopefully they run all the standard apps)
I think at least in EU, that laws might eventually force phones to be more repairable too.
I don’t mind lagging a bit behind the newest specs, I just want something that lasts for longer. It’s also bad for the planet. That’s more important to me than the next shiny thing.
The newer pixels support communication as a sat phone too, but you need a provider that supports it. Here in Australia, that’s Telstra. Not sure about other countries.
But basically ensures there is no offgrid. For most people though, that is useless

Yeah. I do lots of hiking. So I want satellite phone capabilities mainly, but also need battery efficiency
Most people are fine otherwise
Uh, do go on. What sort of satellite capabilities? How do you use those?
