    @janci maybe a little bit more expensive, but a completely different approach, having such a repairable, sustainable device.

      @peterk @janci @benoit The Fairphone 4 has a Snapdragon 750G, released in 2020.

      I was going to comment that this device is likely stuck with an old LTS kernel that won't be supported by Android 5 years from now, but then I found that Fairphone has been doing heroic work to mainline kernel support for their hardware:

      Kudos! 👍

      @peterk @janci @benoit But are Fairphones being updated to Android 13 anytime soon? The website still talks about Android 11, which is a bit worrying...

      I also can't find any public development site aside for this out-of-date thing:
      https://code.fairphone.com/projects/fairphone-4/kernel.html

      LineageOS has Android 12 support for the FP2 and FP3, but not the FP4:

      This isn't looking too good...

      @codewiz @peterk @janci in the meantime I received September security update before stock. I mean at this point, if you care about security and privacy, there is no other choice than #GrapheneOS.

      Others are not really taking security seriously.
