I'm actually in Europe, so no need for that for me. But it doesn't have great specs, nor apparently great security, so I'm leaning towards a Pixel with GrapheneOS for my next phone.
Damn. If the FP5 has a decent camera and video out, I will buy it. I drool over the idea of a phone with fully open source Android ROM (or if/when Linux+Gnome mobile is ready) that I can turn into a full desktop when docked. And I want the manufacturer to enable me to do this, and not try to block me from doing it.
I dream of Mobile Arch + Gnome + Waydroid, but I guess banking & payments will forever be out of the question.

A bit late. It's more that two years old, and it's based on a SoC that was a year old when it was launched

I’ve been wanting to get this phone in Canada for a while. Hoping it will be up for sale here too.. or the next gen version

Same! I can't wait for this to come to North America, hopefully it comes to Canada as well.

If Canada uses the same bands as the rest of NA (and I assume it does) you should be able to get one remailed to you, no?

I might have to check out one of these when I get a new phone

Oh shit WHAT? Thats dope! I'd been waiting for this, I guess I'll have to see how the next fairphone stacks up against the zenphone 10!

I thought the Fair phones had SD card slots? I skimmed through and didn't see any mention
