The company isn’t debuting with its Fairphone smartphones, though, as it’s choosing to launch the Fairbuds XL repairable headphones as its first product in the country. This will be sold in the US as part of a partnership with Amazon.
Honestly, I’m glad they did the Fairbuds first. Just the XL is a little disappointing, since I was hoping for the regular Fairbuds, but I’m sure it makes sense for them to do it that way.
A lot of people aren’t fine with buying a phone that’s a bit behind whatever the newest, flashiest, highest-end phone is, but they are fine with buying headphones that might not please an audiophile, but will be perfectly good for everyone else. Especially if they can replace the battery, cables, speakers, ear cushions, headband, and speaker covers for a price that’s downright reasonable. (20 euros for a brand-new battery, for example)

Oh, fun.
K, but you can buy the Fairphone 6 in the us now.
