The Fairphone 6+ has officially launched, serving as the latest iteration of the Dutch company’s flagship Android device. The new model offers incremental hardware improvements, specifically faster processing speeds and increased memory capacity compared to its predecessor. Despite these internal upgrades, the device retains the modular design that has become the hallmark of the brand, allowing users to perform repairs at home using a single screwdriver included with the purchase.

Sustainability remains a core focus for the company, with the manufacturer reporting that 51% of the phone's materials are either recycled or ethically sourced. This launch also represents a significant strategic shift for Fairphone, as it marks the company's first move to sell its hardware directly to consumers in the United States, expanding its reach beyond the European market. While the device maintains compatibility with parts from previous models, consumers will face a price increase, as the 6+ costs £70 (€50) more than the previous version.
