Fairphone’s latest model, the Fairphone 6, has once again earned a flawless 10/10 repairability rating from iFixit .
Like its predecessors, the device emphasizes modularity and user-friendliness: nearly every component; battery, USB-C port, cameras can be removed or replaced using just a T5 Torx screwdriver and seven screws . Though the battery swap now requires screws rather than a fingernail pull, due to a slimmer soft‑pouch cell, it still takes roughly two minutes, according to Fairphone .
Notably, only the main board has a small bit of adhesive; all other parts are glue-free. The phone’s screw-sealed build achieves an IP55 rating, lower than flagship, but impressive for a fully repairable design . Fairphone supports sustainability with an eight-year security patch promise, seven major Android updates, plus a five-year warranty and loyalty program .
While not aiming to compete on raw performance, the Fairphone 6 still packs solid specs: Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, 8 GB RAM, 6.31″ LTPO OLED, and USB 2.0 . As a phone built to last, technically, ethically, and user-repairable, it stands apart in a disposable tech market.
