My company allowed me to buy a company phone, so I went for a FP6
I would have loved to go for e/os but I felt it was a bit risky with all the necissary apps for my orgsnisation.
So far the phone habe been way better than expected, really satisfied with it!
Just wanted to say that.
So now since you are here, got any advices for a new Fairphone user?

Good choice. I have a FP4 since around 2022 as company phone. Still works fine like from day one on.
But recently I also got a FP6 private because I wanted e/os and I cannot install it on the company phone.
How is e/os? Enjoying it so far?
Yes totally. Coming from google android, I expected it to be the lesser android experience, but actually it finally feals more like what android should be. But I use MicroG and all that fancy google integration perhaps it would be more difficult to do the switch without that.
Thanks for the reply, I do not dare to use E/Os on my company phone but I am tempted to try in the future!
Mine has buy a 6 or use a second hand 5 for free. Seeing as I literally only use it for MS spyware called Authenticator I went with the free 5.
I have found it to be the same as any other phone with a stock android install.
Yeah, coming from Samsung this felt way less bloated!
