The Fixable Fairphone 3

This is a new brand to me and it's nice to see a company moving towards fixable gadgets rather than an pushing out an array of disposables. Plus, it's at least partially made with ethical sources. The meaning of that is a little hazy I guess, but at this point, I'll take what I can get.

Why You Should Care About the Fairphone

Say what you will about modular smartphones—and there’s certainly plenty to say—they do have one very clear benefit over the phones folks most commonly carry around in their pockets: reducing electronic waste. Throwing our gadgets away because we do not know how to fix them or simply can’t continues to take a huge toll on our global waste crisis, with potentially disastrous outcomes. It doesn’t help that the manufacturers who make the majority of these products aren’t doing much to help us lessen our impact.
