Fairphone’s latest repairable device is for people who hate saying goodbye to an old smartphone more than they like buying a new one.

According to the article, nope. Same as the Fairphone 4.

It would be badass if they could add a headphone jack through OTA updates.

Its mediocre camera is a deal breaker for me. Camera is the most important phone feature to me

For me the price is the biggest limiting factor, that and it doesn't work around here anyway. it has almost Flagship level price for just a little bit better specs than your everyday $300 phone that you can buy off the shelf.
