Hi everyone! I’m new to this community, but I’ve heard of Fairphone from Vox, a news site in North America. It seems very neat, and I want to be a part of the movement! Are there any suggestions for how I might be able to get my hands on the Fairphone 3 from Canada? I’m considering multiple option…

Hi @Suzanna_Multhaupt , I’m from BC but I study in Madison, Wisconsin in the US. I’m almost finished ordering from Vireo, thanks to @May_Malek 's suggestions, but I want to make sure that the phone is usable here in North America. Does anyone know if the phone will support American SIMs (AT&T)?

I’ve just ordered my Fairphone 3! Will confirm with you all when it comes! :slight_smile:

@bryanluu I just got mine in my hand! It works great with Freedom, which is the worst provider to have in Westcoast of Canada.

But you know, that you loose the chance to return it, if you don’t like it. You at least should open it to check, if everything is alright. Not, that I have any realy concerns or something to suspect. It’s just a general caution, that I would apply here as well as everywhere else.

@bryanluu , I totally agree with Bert, I would open it to make sure battery and everything else is intact and works properly. I got one from Vireo when I ordered it, but I also ordered the TPU one from Amazon, it takes 3-4 weeks to get shipped, but it’s a a cheap and easy option, rather than a custo…

Thanks @BertG and @May_Malek , I’ll open it to make sure everything is there and intact. I’ll look for screen protectors on Amazon. Cheers!

In case anyone else checks this out before ordering - I confirmed with Vireo that their shipping was indeed 90EUR rather than the 30 their site shows. However, I just ordered from Clove in the UK (which just seems to have been added to the list; it wasn’t there last time I looked), and it only char…
