I am looking at getting one as my next phone when my Pixel 7 reaches EOL. Hopefully the Fairphones are still around by then and hopefully they get more support from custom ROMs. I know CalyxOS supports the Fairphone 4

    It’s probably a demand/cost offset. The demand for it probably doesn’t outweigh the increased cost of adding that component. Simply not worth it for them in the long run.

    At the end of the day they are still a business and there to make money.

      I get it, at the same time. It sucks. I just wish I could buy a swappable component or something. I know that’d be more expensive than just putting a headphone jack. It just sucks the options are limited.
