I buy Fairphone!
If they had at least a Headphone Jack and longer Software Support it would been have Great.
Uhm, the Fiarphone two got it's last update this year but you probably mean feature updates which usually aren't that many. It's supported by LineageOS and various community projects far byond that tho and they provide replacments parts for ages too so beside of the missing headphone jack and that crime of a wireless Airpod clone they did as a result I don't really feel like your comment is fait tbh.
With Updates i mean Security Updates for more then 6 Years it shouldnt be the Job of the Community.
I see many who use their Smartphone for more than 8 Years (3-World-Country) ~70% of the Apps can run on older Devices only AI and and Mobile Games are the Exeption.
The Fairphone 2 was released in 2015, I get that more would be even better but Android is build in a way that makes continues updates hard and this goes far byond other manufacturers already...
Great choice, maybe I will have the money one day but at least I know what I would spend it on!
I hope OLED becomes ethical enough one day for them to use it
