Introducing the Fairphone Gen. 6: Where Performance Meets Purpose
Published date: June 2025
We're thrilled to announce that Your Co-op Mobile is now the exclusive UK provider of the brand-new Fairphone with SIM bundles from £31.50 (no set up fee).
A smartphone that challenges everything you thought you knew about mobile technology. This isn't just another smartphone launch; it's a statement about how all technology can be made fairer, with all the performance to match.
A Phone That's Fair to You
The Fairphone arrives with as a unique smartphone designed to evolve with you by repair and customisation. Available in three stunning colours – heavenly cloud white, horizon black, and forest green – each device comes with generous 256GB storage to handle all your digital life needs.
The Fairphone features reinvented modular accessories with unique interchangeable parts to personalise your experience. Switch between a card holder, finger loop, arm strap and lanyard cord with ease.
It’s meticulously designed for maximising its lifespan far beyond its 5-year warranty, offering an unparalleled combination of user repairability (iFixit 10/10), 8 years of software support and robust design.
Fairphone understands better than any other manufacturer, that consumers deserve devices that can be opened up, affordably repaired and kept for a substantial amount of time without comprising quality. Arguably providing one of the greatest value for money prospects on the market in the long-term.
Uncompromising Performance
Don't mistake sustainability for compromise. The Fairphone delivers flagship-level performance powered by the new Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset and 8GB RAM – doubling the speed of the previous generation. Experience the sleek 6.31-inch LTPO OLED display with 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, that’s smoothness usually saved for Apple’s Pro models and Samsungs leading models. Protected by Gorilla Glass 7i for ultimate scratch resistance.
The next-generation tri-camera system features impressive 50MP Sony Lytia 700C lenses with upgraded low light performance and image stabilisation, plus the latest Samsung KD1 selfie lens with autofocus. Advanced algorithms ensure every photo capture vibrant detail, day or night.
Power users will love the massive battery improvement – over 11 hours longer life (>44 hours total) compared to the previous generation, despite the phone having a smaller battery and being 8% lighter and more compact. Remember, thanks to the modular design, you can swap in a spare battery in seconds for instant, full power.
Built for the Long Haul
The Fairphone's commitment to longevity is unmatched in the smartphone industry. Every device comes with:
- 5-year warranty – The longest of any smartphone (2 years standard, register free for 3 additional years on Fairphones website)
- 8 years of software support - Including a minimum of 6 Android OS upgrades (supported until 2033)
- iFixit 10/10 repair score – Market-leading repairability with 11 modular parts
- Military-grade drop resistance – 1.5-meter drop tested to military standards
- IP55 water resistance - Protection against splashes and light rain
The modular design means you can repair individual components – including cameras, display, and battery – without replacing the entire device. It's designed to save you money and maximise its lifespan far beyond its warranty period.
Innovation with You in Mind
One of the many elements that sets Fairphone apart is their culture for innovation with the ‘designed for you’ principal ringing true with every advancement and introduction of new features.
Now with the 6th Generation Fairphone, you can switch between operating systems with a 2-in-1 customisable experience called 'Fairphone moments.' With a simple flick of the customisable lime green switch button on the side, you can instantly transform your smartphone experience. Switch between minimalist and maxi (normal) modes to limit distractions and be present in the moment – allowing only meaningful messages and calls to reach you when you need to concentrate on life.
Fairphone don’t chase gimmicks or cram in expensive features that only a few may desire. In-fact, this new model has a lower price than the Fairphone 5 had from new, proving their commitment to fairness. But instead, they value high-performance that can be sustained for longer than any other on the market.
Fair to People and Planet
True to its name, the Fairphone is genuinely fair. Over 50% of the device's weight comes from recycled, fair, or Fairtrade materials, incorporating 15 different sustainable materials throughout. The battery is completely fair – featuring responsibly sourced cobalt, lithium, and other components.
The manufacturing process prioritises ethical practices, with employees in renewably powered factories receiving living wages and living wage bonuses – some of the highest working conditions in the tech industry. This transparency extends throughout an open and documented supply chain.
Environmental responsibility runs deep, with Fairphone operating as e-waste neutral – recycling the same weight of old technology as products sold. The Fairphone Gen. 6 is Blue Angel Certified, meeting the highest environmental and human standards available.
