The Gigaset GS6 Pro combines modern smartphone features with a commitment to sustainability. Equipped with a 6.67-inch FHD+ OLED display (120 Hz), the fast MediaTek Dimensity 7300 5G processor, and a generous 256 GB of internal storage, it’s perfectly equipped for intensive multitasking. The absolute highlight: The removable 5,300 mAh battery, which can be charged via 30W fast charging or wirelessly. Thanks to its rugged, IP68-certified housing, a high-resolution 64 MP triple camera, and future-proof Android.
Repairability isn’t the only thing Fairphone is about, it’s also about, y’know, fairness in how it sources its materials. Which is part of the reason why said phones aren’t cheap.
It’s not the only thing. But you can bet that the 10/10 reparability score on ifixit is not an accident.
It’s great that other companies are sourcing their materials fairly, but if I have to toss the device after three years because the battery is dead and I can’t swap it, or because the screen cracks, the speaker died or whatever, I’ll take that with a grain of salt.
However, the combination of a replaceable battery, wireless charging, and a waterproof chassis is a genuine unique selling point in the mid-range segment.
Didn’t read far enough to see if the Gigaset is more repairable than that.
I just wanted to add that Fairphone is more than just great repairability.
Unless it has comparable reparability it can hardly be considered an “answer to the Fairphone”
