Tom's Guide

3.5/5Oct 9, 2026

Fairphone 6+ excels in repairability, warranty and software support, but its weak cameras, mid-range processing and bland design hold it back at $649.

  • Class-leading 5-year warranty covering parts and labor
  • Easy DIY repairability and modular replaceable back cover
  • Software support guaranteed through 2033
  • Battery lasts over 13 hours in testing
  • Fast 30W wired charging
  • Over-processed, weak camera results
  • Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 performance lags rivals
  • Choppy gaming frame rates in graphics tests
  • Bland, blocky design with thick bezels
  • Higher price than iPhone 17e and Pixel 10a

The Verge

8/10Sep 6, 2026

A modular, repairable midrange phone that feels like a typical Android phone and is finally sold in the US. Battery and water resistance are modest, but value is strong.

  • Highly repairable with 12 user-replaceable parts
  • Five-year warranty and up to six OS upgrades
  • Swappable back panels and fun modular accessories
  • Close-to-stock Android with no bloat or gimmicky AI
  • Lower repair costs than Pixel or Galaxy phones
  • Upfront price is high for a midrange phone
  • IP55 rating, less dust and water resistance than rivals
  • Battery life is just okay for power users
  • No wireless charging or magnetic attachment
  • Speakers are tinny and daylight brightness is average
