There us a lot of stuff that you can use and connect with your Fairphone, but there is also a lot of stuff that’s not compatible. The difference is not always clear, in this topic you can post what products you can use with your FP or not and why. Only change when you’re sure.
Headphones
For headphones check out this discussion and read this article.
Compatible

Partially compatible
- GoPro Hero 3+ (see Discussion)
