1. Fairphone 5
One of the key reasons we love the Fairphone 5 is its impressive warranty offering. Fairphone is a company whose primary purpose is to ensure that the products it sells can last as long as possible, in an effort to minimise e-waste, as well as wider environmental impact, and an extended warranty certainly supports this endeavour.
As per EU law, Fairphone has to sell its wares with a minimum two-year warranty. However, the company then offers up its latest Fairphone 5 (and the Fairphone 4, for that matter) with the option an an extended three-year warranty on top; meaning your Fairphone can be covered for up to five years total.
Even if you don’t buy your Fairphone directly from the company, they promise to still offer this extended warranty, provided you activate it within 90 days of the device’s purchase date. This carries through to 2025 too, meaning you could technically buy a Fairphone 5 with a warranty that doesn’t expire until 2031.
At the time of writing, the company hasn’t yet brought its latest Fairphone 5 to the US, but previous models have made it across the Atlantic, so if it does, we hope that it’ll come packing the same impressive warranty offering the company serves it up with in Europe and the UK.
