Review: de FairPhone 3+ doet je minstens even nadenken

Op zich levert de Fairphone 3+ (469 euro) niet zo spectaculair veel smartphone, voor nĂ©t iets te veel geld. De extra euro’s die je ervoor neertelt zijn voor de planeet en je geweten. En daar is ook iets voor te zeggen, vindt onze techspecialist.

Mooi artikel. Niets nieuws voor de vaste kern hier, maar wel een mooi artikel.

Je kunt de FairPhone 3+ gerust vergelijken met de OnePlus Nord en nieuwe iPhone SE. De FairPhone 3+ kost 469 euro, de iPhone SE koop je vanaf 449 euro en de OnePlus Nord kost je momenteel 499 euro.

Interessante vergelijking, was ik niet opgekomen. Ook accuraat qua features en performance?

Een nieuwe telefoon kopen is veel makkelijker dan je oude laten repareren

“Smartphones zijn wegwerpproducten geworden,” zegt Monique Lempers, Impact Innovation Director van Fairphone. “Jaarlijks worden er wereldwijd 1,4 miljard exemplaren verkocht. Na twee tot drie jaar worden ze weer afgedankt. Ze belanden in een la en soms helaas nog bij het huisvuil. Slechts 20 procent wordt gerecycled en daarvan wordt slechts 5 procent van het gebruikte materiaal teruggewonnen.”

Deze robot recycled downcycled voor heel Europa de iPhones. Er staat er ook eentje in de VS.

According to the website of the Dutch consumer organization ‘de Consumentenbond’, iPhones are more sustainable than Fairphone.
I discovered this when investigating the test of 312 smartphones on their website. The details of the test are only accessible to members, but I made a detailed analysis of it on my blog:
Consumentenbond test duurzaamheid smartphones: Apple iPhone is duurzamer dan Fairphone!
Is there something comparable by other consumer organizations?

Nederlands: de Consumentenbond heeft een zeer subjectieve en oncontroleerbare manier van testen van smartphones. Op wonderbaarlijke en ondoorgrondelijke wijze komen de iPhones bovenaan de lijst te staan en krijgen ze het predikaat ‘De Beste van de Test’ zonder dat duurzaamheid meetelt!

I assume you’re the author of the article since the last paragraph mentions this forum. It’s best to contactsupport, this is just a user community forum.

You indeed bring up interesting questions. Both Fairphone and the Consumentenbond are respectabele organisations. So please let us know their respons.

The FP website is loaded with their accreditation/rewards. So you can find more there.

And some 3rd party sites, like:

Hi UPPERCASE Fairphone Angel,

Thank you for your message.
How do I contact the right person of the Fairphone staff? (preferably someone who understands Dutch)
Your link [contactsupport] didn’t seem to work.

I consider writing a follow up blog in English.

That tag/link points to this topic:

You can also give their support staff a call. On the bottom of this page are their contacts listed.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Gert, you are right, this surprises me also and I immediately emailed the Consumentenbond to ask for clarification. As a member I can see testscore details. It’s rather unbelievable to see the Apple get a 9.8 (out of 10!) for company sustainability and Fairphone a 8.9.

Apple 15 pro max:


Fairphone 5:

Am I missing something here? Is Apple really doing good things for sustainability that I do not know about or is this just superficial testing by the Consumentenbond? I suspect the last and since Fairphone is working hard to increase brand awareness they should know about this.

Hi gerritj,
Thanks for your comment.
Good that you contacted the Consumentenbond.
Did you get a reply?
We must insist on a reply, otherwise they are going on with their business as usual.
The problem is that the evaluations (eindcijfers, beoordelingen) are not explained, there are no sources on which those evaluations are based. So I don’t know if Consumentenbond just copies what is on the website of Apple about sustainability and take it for the truth.

PS recently I discovered that laptop tests (Notebooks) ignore Framework notebook, and non-repairable laptops get the highest rankings (accidentally always Apple!).

you can contact me also via my blog

Hello Gert, I just had a quick scroll through your Consumentenbond blog and see you already made a great effort in this issue. In my email I stated I would appreciate an article in which they explain their test-ratings on sustainability and I received an answer that they could not guarantee this but that my question has been send to the experts.
