So stop using electronics? We’re talking about a phone with its own batteries. I understand your point but Fairphone can’t solve every sustainability and e-waste problem with a single device. Not buying this phone, assuming you buy a different, less sustainable phone, is a net negative.
They could create less e-waste by including a headphone jack and not removing it cause they wanna sell their own wireless headphones. Its a simple money move. And I don’t wanna support a company like that even if in theory their message is just.
Because what lithium ion battery last forever? They’re well degraded after a few years.

The phone has a removable battery. Not one that you need to break the device apart and unsolder everything to get to it, like almost all headphones.
Again, this is an argument for better headphones.
Well tell that to Fairphone, they’re only selling shitty e-waste ones instead of providing a headphone jack.
But do let me know who is making in-ear earphones with a removable battery. Not massive over the head cows. Portable earphones.

It’s also in keeping with the entire industry. “I don’t want to use a USB-C dongle” isn’t a principled stance
I’ve made plenty of other good points for why the headphone jack should be still included.
So use a AAA or something like my old pair did. We just need better Bluetooth headphones.
