This phone comes with a screwdriver!
“Smartphone vendors are aiming for cost-cutting, by not bundling earphones with device, some are not giving chargers too these days! Oops, Sorry! The latter ones, care for ENVIRONMENT!”
So, there is a smartphone manufacturing brand named “Fairphone”, which bundles a screwdriver along with the smartphone!
There’s more! A screwdriver is the only accessory that they provide in the box! No chargers, No USB cables, and No earphones (obviously)
“Someone has done it earlier than Apple” ;)
Fairphone is a social enterprise company that aims to manufacture smartphones that are designed and produced with minimal environmental impact!
The phones that are developed by this brand, do not contain minerals (gold, tin, tantalum, and tungsten) which lead to Electronic Waste!
Aah! Nice! Enironment friendly and all.. Why Screwdriver Bro?
The company aims to make the phone’s design as repairable as possible and that is the reason, A screwdriver is bundled!
So, take the phone’s back off and you’re good to open it like a pro with that screwdriver in minutes!
Well, this phone has a few things that others don’t have today!
- > Removable battery
- > SIM card slot beneath the battery
- > Removable camera
Ah! Reminded me of the 90’s Nokia phones! Eh? Removable camera?
Yes! We all know that smartphone vendors these days are launching new smartphones with only a few upgrades and only important upgrades are in the cameras!
Sometimes I think,
How good it would be if, I could get the “camera module” off my phone and replace it with a better resolution “camera module” without replacing my phone!
“Fairphone: Your wish is our command! Abra ka Dabra”
Fairphone sells camera modules separately! And, also provides a simple to-do guide on how to replace the camera on your own!
Screwdriver: Eh! You forget to mention me! I’m the boss here!
Umm.. Yeah using that screwdriver!
Their main mission is to have “fair electronic products” that are more sustainable, easily repairable as well as environmentally friendly!
Change is in your hands!
Certainly, it is!
Leave your phone that is in your hands now and start studying!
