This partnership expands the phone's potential audience, as Boost Mobile has over seven million subscribers. The Fairphone 6 Plus, priced at $649.99, offers a mid-range Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset, 12GB of RAM, Android 16, and a 6.31-inch display. Its notable features include 12 user-replaceable parts, long-term software support through 2033, and a five-year warranty. The phone comes in Cobalt Blue, Forest Green, and Horizon Black. Raymond van Eck, CEO of Fairphone, expressed excitement about the collaboration, stating that it addresses the \"system built on planned obsolescence and constant, expensive upgrades\" that has traditionally trapped US consumers.",
