While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys’ opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

    i like my car :( and i’m paranoid about features in new cars. i can hear a noticeable difference in quality with bluetooth vs wired too. never been a fan

    regardless, cars that people primarily use 3.5mm for aren’t going away too soon!

      You should do what I did and just fuck up your ears with loud car stereos in your teenage years. Now I can’t tell a damn bit of difference.

          You can retrofit a head unit or a screen to an older car. It works really well and gives so many more years to an older vehicle.

          Look for “CarPlay screen” on amazon

            I can very much recommend! It’s nearly as buying a new car, at least for me xD

      I upgraded my car without Bluetooth using a carPlay ready touchscreen auto radio to replace the old thing that was mounted in the DIN drawer thingy
