Fairphone 6 case partly blocking fingerprint reader

Oh wow, so it’s the same issue that the FP5 case has too?

No. Never heard the FP5 case gives people hard times to unlock?

On the FP6 its different, and for me at least caused by the fact that there is this big cutout, having only 1 case “wall”. Tried to explain it here

Have you seen the modular accessories for The Fairphone (Gen. 6)?

[IMG_20250721_103154] I bought the lanyard and a black case. The lanyard broke after 2 days already…and I dont like it so much that its fixed at the phone at that place instead of at the bottom as with third party cases The case reminds me of the Fairphone 3 Bumper, which I liked. The Vol buttons seem to be more sensitive with the case. I dont like the big cutout with no case at the screen side, because it makes it difficult to use the fingerprint sensor.
