The Fairphone Gen 6 Plus is officially available in US, no middleman needed
Previous Fairphone models were available in the US via Murena, running Google-free software. Not this time.
The Fairphone Gen 6 Plus is now officially available in the United States, marking a significant milestone for the company. This first-ever US release eliminates the need for a middleman, allowing consumers direct access to the product through Fairphone.com and Amazon.
Previous Fairphone models in the US were sold via software firm Murena, utilizing a Google-free /e/OS Android fork. However, the new Gen 6 Plus comes with the standard Google-equipped OS, featuring an in-house gallery app—a first for the brand.
Priced at $649 or £569, the Fairphone Gen 6 Plus offers a balance of ethical manufacturing, repairability, and lengthy software update commitments. It supports networks operated by AT&T and T-Mobile, providing users with flexible connectivity options. This launch highlights Fairphone's commitment to creating ethically-built devices that are both environmentally and socially responsible.
