        Be aware that their hardware has cross gen problems and their support is very bad. /e/os has implemented tracking id into their update service. They are calling cleanapk, they update OS and Webview extremly slow resulting in a very insecure OS.

          I’ve recently got monthly updates. The last one from 2024-01-09 containing Android security patches until 12/2023.

      I can recommend flashing /e/OS to de-google the Fairphone. Running smoothly on my FP3 since 2021.
