I’m thinking of getting a fairphone in the future. I like that they are modular and last a while. Are they easily customizable to where I can flash a different ROM? Is the default configuration private?

    As others said, it’s pretty stock android so… Bad. But you can buy it from Murena pre-flashed with e/os and then have a stock phone with a locked bootloader running a decently private OS. The bootloader is unlockable if you so wish.

        Yes, it’s relockable. You are welcome to Google for more, I had done some research a while ago.

        I plan to brush up and switch my own FP4 to e/os during the holidays.

        Edit: Google it on any search engine you like ;-)
