I wish importing phones were an option for my country, but no. Even if I secured a way to bring it here, it takes 1000 dollars just to register its IMEI to use here.

Really wish Fairphone would come to the US. I'd spend the money on it, but they only half-ass sold the last gen phone here on the US.
I don't even understand why. They support most 4G and every mid and low band 5G in America. Even if I could just import it, I'd be happy.
I can send you one probably, but you know.. tariffs (and processing fees).

Unfortunately it's not available in the US though.
Fairphone 6 approaching? They are great, the project is amazing and I wish every brand would be like them in terms of caring about users and environment
