About this unit
A refurbished Fairphone 5 flashed with CalyxOS + microG. This is the ethical pick of the line: Fairphone's modular design means the screen, battery and ports are user-replaceable, the company's sourcing and repairability record is the best in the industry, and the device is supported by CalyxOS to Sep 2031 — with bootloader re-locking supported on Fairphone hardware. We source the refurb through Australian-compliant channels (lost/stolen register checked, IMEI attested), flash the current verified CalyxOS build, and QA on an AU network before dispatch. microG gives everyday app compatibility; the trade-off versus GrapheneOS is a softer security posture, stated plainly.

- Support horizon to Sep 2031 — one of the longest in the line
