Note that these links are for the “dev” versions. Murena also releases “stable” versions (just replace the terms in the URL) for those devices Murena also sells with /e/OS pre-installed.
AFAIK preorders started simultanously with the FP5 sold directly by Fairphone, but it was communicated from the very beginning that it will take a few more weeks to finish the /e/os port. I expect Murena will release an additional announcement once they actually start shipping devices.
Interestingly enough, I could add a phone to cart and proceed to checkout with no clear indication of the delivery time. The only indication that it is not there yet was the information on back-order availability
Yeah, it was pretty clear when they initiated the preorder phase with their announcement on August 30th, but I agree that it has become a little confusing since Fairphone itself started shipping on September 14th.
First day using this as my daily driver worked very well! Didn’t notice any incomplete features, only the always-on display seems to be missing. Great!
Not yet at least. The FP4 is though. All current information regarding the FP5 availability in the US can be found at: Murena Fairphone 5 availability – Murena – deGoogled phones and services. I suppose some modifications will be necessary to ensure proper compatibility with US networks. Both Fairphone and Murena are not a huge companies (when compared to other Smartphone manufacturers), so they have limited support capacity and their primary market is in Europe, so I guess it’ll take some time until necessary adaptions can be made.
