with all the joy connected to new colours and launches, one should not forget the joy of cherishing what you already have:)
it has been almost three years since FP5 launched so I am just slightly ahead of myself but here you go, this is the topic to request the badge once your FP5 comes out of age so to speak
Hey @Meaghan, thanks for creating the topic.
Then I’ll be the first one to ask for it, today I have my FP5 for 3 years.
Got the worn-out USB port replaced earlier this year, had charger issues around the same time and now a power button that most of the time opens the camera (double-tab) instead of just locking/ unlocking - but those are rather small annoyances for me so far.
It’s been a good daily driver almost all the time! I’m quite certain it will be able to do so for another while, I don’t see any hardware limitations reached yet. The battery is also still doing pretty well for my taste
Oups, forgot to mention it here (it was due on Sept. 19 already obviously):
No warranty claims so far, it works as good as it can. Battery isn’t as fresh anymore, but that’s expected. I’m still mostly happy with it, only the battery (and I think that goes for a fresh one, too) could last longer, especially when comparing with FP6.
My Fairphone 5 turned also 3 years.
It’s running on /e/OS since August 2026.
The first battery is doing fine and there was no need for repairs so far.
