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?

oh huh, good to know. if android auto doesn't already too, hopefully it will by the time my arm is twisted into getting a new car

You can retrofit a head unit or a screen to an older car. It works really well and gives so many more years to an older vehicle.

Look for “CarPlay screen” on amazon

I can very much recommend! It’s nearly as buying a new car, at least for me xD
