I replaced my Samsung S24 with a Fairphone 6 running /e/OS and used it as my daily work phone. Here's whether a de-Googled smartphone holds up for professional use.

It is worth noting that both the hardware and software of Fairphone is heavily dependent on a Chinese company T2Mobile.

For those looking to avoid both US and Chinese companies, then the Jolla phone is the way to go.

    I just bought a FP6 with /e/os installed by Murena in the US and it’s been great so far except that RCS isn’t supported by /e/os so group texts don’t work. Which is honestly a huge issue that is causing enough social friction that I’ll probably revert to an iPhone soon.
