Hopefully his 7a doesn’t die tomorrow, and by then Fairphone has managed to put out Something that’s at least reasonably better than 7a.

When I bought my Fairphone, I was simply too fed up with working around the intentional shittiness of the other companies.

I prefer to deal with some technical limitations, than have to deal with intentional ones.

I use Arch BTW.

Yes, it’s relockable. You are welcome to Google for more, I had done some research a while ago.

I plan to brush up and switch my own FP4 to e/os during the holidays.

Edit: Google it on any search engine you like ;-)

As others said, it’s pretty stock android so… Bad. But you can buy it from Murena pre-flashed with e/os and then have a stock phone with a locked bootloader running a decently private OS. The bootloader is unlockable if you so wish.
