Fantastic Phone
Love the modularity. Performance is good, but not flagship fast. Being able to remove the battery is amazing. Microsd card slot is super useful! Being able to remove any or all of the 3 cameras is kind of cool for privacy. I dont use a case, only a screen protector and its held up to many drops with some slight dings in the frame. The phone is rather heavy and thick as a result of its build design, but I dont mind. I would buy it again.

Awesome Sustainable Phone!
If you want a cellular phone that gives you the convenience of ones from the 2010s, than this one is the perfect one for you! It has the removable back to remove your battery, Micro SD Card and SIM Card. Best of all you can repair it yourself if you need parts for it such as the USB-C ports, camera etc. As of 9/12/2023, the price on it is a little steep than what it's worth. Also, if you are planning to expose it in humid environments, you might want to look elsewhere.

It's a phone. It works like a phone and I can change the battery.
I like the phone so far. I love that I can pop a SIM in and out so easily. i have it working with a T-Mobile eSIM and a ting physical SIM in the US. Both are working in tandem. I tried to stay with AT&T (my original carrier) but was never successful getting their physical or eSIM to work with it. I'm happy with the phone and love how easy it is to change batteries and other components. The phone sounds pretty good too. Unusual for phones these days.

A DIY 5G iPhone
Pros - 5 year warranty, 5G capable, fully compatible with US based GMS providers, built to be repaired or upgraded rather than scrapped, but recyclable if you manage to damage it beyond repair. Cons - Smooth body, resolved with a 6$ case (multiple models available everywhere). 1 issue at initial boot regarding apps, quickly identified and corrected by customer service. An excellent example of sustainable tech for the 21st century.

Works for some carriers in the US
Love the phone and the ethos behind it. For me, this phone did not work with AT&T or Verizon but did work for T-Mobile and Mint Mobile.
