I would totally buy one of these if they were sold in the US. Sadly, last time I checked the newest phone wasn’t sold here. So I doubt this one will be.
I was very, sad to miss out on the entire Fairphone 5 generation, but I gave up and bought a Pixel 8 when they announced the 5 wont be coming any time soon.
Finally I can get a phone that’s worth buying (and earbuds as I see they carry the fairbuds now)
Please take note of MystValkyrie’s response to my post. I have no experience with Murena and I cannot vouch for them. In light of what MystValkyrie shared, it might be wise to proceed with caution and maybe look into it more before ordering.
I would not recommend Murena for U.S. customers. I attempted buying a FP4 from them, and they put $6000 in charges to my credit card. Their message-only customer service was terrible and tried to blame me. Had to get my bank involved.
You are genuinely the first person I’ve seen online who understands screen size != Phone size, because bezels exist and are different sized from phone to phone.
My current 6.3" screen phone is virtually identical in size to the 4.2" one I had in 2012.

You can get them in the U.S. with /e/OS through Murena, but they are $900 :(
Thank you, this is huge!

Yeesh! Thanks for the heads up.
It may be simpler to just figure out how to import it from FairPhone at that point.

You can thank the President for that. ahem tariff* ahem*
you can get them in the US.
I just want them to be smaller.
It’s 6.3" because of the lack of top/bottom bezels. The phone itself is not much bigger than a Galaxy S7.

Bezels or not phones are still too large to be comfortable to use for many people.
5.8" with no bezel would be a great size. Something comparable to an old 4-4.2" phone.
I could go for like <5 in to be honest.
