Hi all, I wanted to share my first impression of the Fairphone 2. I’m using it now for 2 days, and I’m happy with it. I think there are some specifics in the way I use my phone (I’m not an average user, but who is :wink:): I use WiFi only, so no mobile internet (2G / 3G / 4G). Hence I’m using …

I have the same issue with this rattling sound - and it’s even worse when the phone rings and the vibration is on - is there any fix on that? Can other FP2 owners confirm that sound? Maybe it is a manufacturing bug… It is a little bit annoying. Best, Daniel*

wenn ich wüsste, dass die Bugs wirklich in angemessener Zeit behoben würden, hätte ich kein Problem damit. Aber ob es wirklich nur Softwareprobleme sind, ist fraglich. Und wenn sich FP für jede Fehlerbehebung wochenlang bis zur Ausrollung Zeit lässt, hat man für lange Zeit eine Dauerbaustelle dabei…

It is that difficult to speak english ? Anyway, i was going to put my review of it,i made it in english, but since i’m french, i will post it in JAPANESE just to be sure that you don’t understand it ! So, my review (in english because i don’t have a japanese keyboard): I have received my Fairphon…
