| - | [* icon_note] Looking at the Fairphone 1 there wasn’t much to repair either and it took some tweaking for them to get where they are right now. |
| - | [* black] Fairphone is doing some things right with their earbuds (fairtrade gold and recycled plastics) but that doesn’t fall into our field and although very welcome and desirable, it doesn't ease repairs. |
