Fairphone’s latest repairable phone is finally available in the US for $650
Fairphone 最新款可维修手机终于在美国上市,售价 650 美元
As smartphone designs have become more refined, they’ve also become less repairable. Fairphone bucks that trend, offering devices that can be fully disassembled and serviced using a single screwdriver. But its devices were a pain to get in the US until now. 随着智能手机的设计变得越来越精致,它们的可维修性也随之降低。Fairphone 逆势而行,提供可以使用一把螺丝刀完全拆解和维修的设备。但在此之前,在美国购买其设备一直非常困难。
The Dutch company has launched the Fairphone Gen 6+ in the US, offering not only the phone but a full line of accessories and replacement parts so you can keep your phone running for years. And yes, the battery is removable. 这家荷兰公司已在美国推出 Fairphone Gen 6+,不仅提供手机本身,还提供全系列的配件和替换零件,让你能够让手机使用多年。没错,它的电池是可拆卸的。
Don’t expect the Fairphone Gen 6+ to blow you away in the spec department—it focuses on being repairable and paying workers a fair wage. Half of the phone is made from recycled materials, and it has a microSD card slot. How retro. 不要指望 Fairphone Gen 6+ 在规格参数上让你惊艳——它的重点在于可维修性和为工人支付公平的工资。该手机一半由回收材料制成,并配有 microSD 卡槽。真是复古。

The Fairphone Gen 6+ is not an entirely new phone, but it is slightly upgraded from the regular Fairphone 6. The processor is slightly more powerful, with a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor replacing the Gen 3 in the last phone. The RAM has also been increased from 8GB to 12GB, a rarity during our current global RAM shortage. Fairphone also offers the device in a new “Cobalt Blue” color, which is a reference to the company’s efforts to support ethical cobalt mining in Africa. Fairphone Gen 6+ 并非一款全新的手机,而是普通版 Fairphone 6 的小幅升级款。处理器性能略有提升,采用了骁龙 7s Gen 4 处理器,取代了上一代机型中的 Gen 3。内存也从 8GB 增加到了 12GB,这在当前全球内存短缺的情况下实属难得。Fairphone 还为该设备提供了全新的“钴蓝色”,旨在呼吁人们关注该公司在非洲支持合乎道德的钴矿开采所做的努力。
It’s been possible to buy Fairphones in the US before, but they were imported through other companies. The non-plus Fairphone 6 was offered through a company called Murena, which sold it for a higher price and loaded the phone with its de-Googled /e/OS. The new phone runs a standard build of Android 16 with all the usual Google services, and the company promises seven years of update support. 此前在美国也可以买到 Fairphone,但都是通过其他公司进口的。非 Plus 版的 Fairphone 6 曾通过一家名为 Murena 的公司销售,其售价更高,且预装了去谷歌化的 /e/OS 系统。而这款新手机运行的是标准的 Android 16 系统,包含所有常见的谷歌服务,公司并承诺提供七年的更新支持。
The power of the Fairphone is its modular design. With other phones, even something simple like replacing an aging battery often requires melting adhesive, prying apart fragile glass panels, and decoupling cables. The Fairphone Gen 6+ has two screws on the back to open the rear panel, providing access to the internals. As a result, the phone is only IP55 rated—safe from splashes but not full submersion. Fairphone 的核心优势在于其模块化设计。对于其他手机,即使是更换老化电池这样简单的事情,通常也需要熔化粘合剂、撬开脆弱的玻璃面板并断开电缆。Fairphone Gen 6+ 的背面有两个螺丝,拧开即可打开后盖,从而接触到内部组件。因此,该手机仅具备 IP55 防护等级——可以防溅水,但不能完全浸入水中。
With a single T5 torx driver, you can replace the battery, cameras, USB-C port, display, and more. In all, there are 12 components available for purchase, from the $8 SIM card tray to the $90 OLED screen assembly. Fairphone also sells a few accessories, including a case, a lanyard, and alternative back panels with a card holder or a finger loop. 只需一把 T5 梅花螺丝刀,你就可以更换电池、摄像头、USB-C 接口、显示屏等部件。总共有 12 个组件可供购买,价格从 8 美元的 SIM 卡托到 90 美元的 OLED 屏幕组件不等。Fairphone 还销售一些配件,包括手机壳、挂绳以及带有卡槽或指环扣的替换后盖。
The Fairphone Gen 6+ is fully unlocked with support for T-Mobile and AT&T in the US. It’s available directly from Fairphone, and it will be on sale on Amazon soon as well. Fairphone Gen 6+ 为全网通版本,支持美国的 T-Mobile 和 AT&T 网络。目前可直接从 Fairphone 官网购买,不久后也将在亚马逊上架销售。
