FP2 Battery Problems (drains quickly, CPU gets hot) - See batteryguide for workarounds

Be aware that the FP2 has a terrible battery life - mine will be drained completely by 11am with moderate-to-heavy use. But then, with a processor that runs at up to 80 degrees+ Celcius, what can one expect?

You’ll also see in these pages numerous stories of the FP2’s terrible build quality; really, what is sold is not what the English call “of merchantable quality”. Mine came fresh out of the box with a camera that didn’t work, and after being told by FP to buy a screw driver to fix it, which I did, it is now touch and go, sometimes I get it to work by taking the back cover off and pressing down on it a bit.

Like everyone here make your choice to try to make the world a better place; however, be aware that you’re not going to get anything like Apple quality, and if there were another ethical phone on the market, you’d chose the other one.
