        2 OS updates and 3 years of security patches alongside average power consumption, and average materials. It received 52% sustainability score.

        All in all. This is a poor man’s Fairphone.

    My experience with HMD ‘phones’:

    • Constant disabling/breaking of Bluetooth/Mobile Data/Wifi
    • Bricked after OS update
    • A ‘repair software’ that can only be used once (one action per activation), needs to be authorized by CS, can only be activated - and therefore used - x times per day and y times per week/month. It’s also utterly useless, only ‘fixing’ stuff temporarily. And stuff breaks more than the software can be used. That in itself sounds absurd, doesn’t it?
    • No unlockable bootloader
