Fairphone 5: Keeping it 10/10? | iFixit News
www.ifixit.com
Is the Fairphone 5 just a repeat of a proven formula or a real improvement compared to its predecessors?

While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys’ opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

    Now that you say it, I’ve never thought about the default cam, I’ve always been using OpenCamera

      Yeaa but the open tool being sold for profit they are not my go to apps anymore…

      But I still need to switch my calendar to the newly made fork

        Do you mean simplemobiletools? OpenCamera is not part of that, I believe theirs is called Simple Camera

            So I just installed the default lineage cam again, and would you look at that, it can use both lenses on my OnePlus 5T. Would love to have more manual controls though.

            Thank you so much for reminding me this app exists

              Yes that’s what drove me to gcam

                Oh well, having aurora store installed for one single app isn’t worth it to me. My second lens is for night mode shots, and I barely use that. It’s just nice to have access to it at all.

                    True, that’s an option too. Just not one you can trust as much, which is what turns me off.
