Ultra fast charging is so good though. I've got a oneplus 12 and it charges from 0-100 in like 30 minutes.

Surely, that impacts the battery longevity, right? Personally, I disable all fast-charging features and charge my phone overnight.

P.S. Sorry for calling you Shirley.

I saw list item 1 more as "I want my phone to last for 5+ years, so I will want to replace my battery eventually", rather than "I wanna wreck my battery fast, so it better be replaceable". Being wasteful with your battery like that goes against the spirit of Fairphone, IMO.

If it's removable you can much more easily recycle it though. Sustainably that is much much better than average phones.

However, while more sustainable than current it is not the most sustainable if you charge it like that
