Also, it comes with an upgraded 48MP primary camera and 16MP selfie camera. Further, it arrives with Android 10 and is currently up for pre-order on its official website for €469. It will start shipping to buyers from September 14.

Apart from the above-mentioned changes, the new Fairphone 3+ (Plus) is identical to its predecessor Fairphone 3. In fact, if you own the last year’s model, you can upgrade it with the new 48MP Samsung ISOCELL GM1 rear and 16MP front camera modules priced at  €59.95 and €34.95 respectively.

Talking about other specs, the Fairphone 3+ sports a 5.65-inch FHD+ (2160 x 1080 pixels) IPS LCD panel with 18:9 aspect ratio, 427ppi, and Gorilla Glass 5 protection.  It comes powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 paired with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage with support for microSD card up to 400GB.

It features dual nano-SIM card slot, 4G, dual-band WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS (GPS, Glonass, Galileo), NFC, 3.5mm headphone jack, USB Type-C, rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, and a 3,040mAh battery.

The device is only available in Black color and the box only contains the phone, a mini screwdriver as well as a quick start guide. Hence, even though the handset comes with 2 years of warranty, you will need to buy the charger and USB cable separately.
