Introduction
The Fairphone company prides itself on its allegedly sustainably produced technology. Part of that is its commitment to fight obsolescence driven e-waste by very long software support periods for its products.
Model Released -> Support
Fairphone 2013 -> Ended 2017
Fairphone 2 2015 -> Ended 2023
Fairphone 3 2019 -> Confirmed until 2024, aims for 2026
Fairphone 3+ 2020 -> Confirmed until 2025
Fairphone 4 2021 -> Confirmed until 2026
Fairphone 5 2023 -> Confirmed until 2031, aims for 2033
Criteria
If they publicly commit to 2026 updates, or release updates in 2026 for either 3 or 3+ this will resolve YES.
If they publicly announce the discontinuation of security updates for the phones, or 2026 passes with no updates, this will resolve NO.
I commit to resolve based on the description (and not the title or comments I made).
If there is ambiguity, I'll defer to someone impartial with no stake in the resolution.
