It's not clear to me how many of the components are swappable in this version. That was a big selling point of the Fairphone to begin with.

The technical descriptions are clearly lacking, up to the point where this product page almost makes me angry... the dimensions seem to be "156.5mm x 73.3mm" with "9,6 mm" thickness, but just right below in the isometric view it says 162mm x 75.5mm x 10.5mmm. I would be really interested in this product as replacement for the iPhone SE, but how can they screw up something so simple?

Anything above 72mm is too big to use it comfortable by one hand or put it in pocket.

I wish there is compact android phone with open bootloadet option.

Too big for you, or too big for almost everyone?

If the latter, do you have a source or some research to point to?

If the former, why did you choose to present a personal preference as a common truth?

Based on what? Subjective observation?

Just because majoroty repeat something, it doeant meant that it is true. Conformity behavior shape opinions on observable facts, look at Asch experiments.
