Just bought a Fairphone 5 and installed /e/os myself through their adb script (they only had normal android ones in stock). So far, it works flawlessly and even managed to install my bank app. I haven't tried wallet as don't tend to use it. Everything else works and not missing the Samsung s22 ultra I moved from.

Pretty snappy. There's no bloat at all and you're in full control on what's on there so it's been quite nice. I haven't noticed anything being slow. The default launcher is very like an iPhone but I would've always switched to lawnchair and put as many foss apps as I can for all the usual stuff so the experience day to day is very similar to my old phone at less than half the cost new.
