Is the Furiphone good? What is good and what is bad about it?
I have been using a fairphone for about 2 years and its great. I drop my phone a lot and I've still not broke the screen, even though it deffo needs a case. I like carrying around spare batteries, even though you can't do that on the fp6 apparently. The camera sucks worse than phones that some of my friends have that were 1/3 of the price.
