Why include headphones?

[urs_lesse]

I assume you got your Fairphone 3 in France? We discussed this a few weeks or months ago, and someone said that for many years, French law actually demands that phones be delivered with earphones/headsets – in order to reduce radiation exposure of the user.

FP3 unboxing with a surprise!

I can confirm that in France earphones are mandatory with every new mobile phone. The regulation was introduced in 2003 to help reduce brain exposure to the radiation emitted by mobile phones (there were no smartphones at the time…).
