Replaceable battery

40€

Replaceable usb charging port

20€

120 watt cahrging

33W

Is it me or did they get slightly more vague on their marketing materials, wrt the environmental impact ( at least compared to fp5 ) ?

Also the battery seems a bit harder to replace, as you now need a screwdriver. It does appear to be more flush, so it may be due to size constraints.

Edit: and there's "more" replaceable parts because the back is split in two. That split might prove better for durability tho, because pulling the back on their older phones felt like it would break every time.

Why do you need 120 watts charging for a phone? Most laptops don't even support 100w.

You have these usb-c to mini jack adapters. They are like 5 to 10eu. They are small enough to keep them attached to your jack headphone. It works perfectly for me.

I think it is better to view the usb-c plug as 'one protocol to rule them all'. If you do so, it makes quite some sense.

I'm sad that the battery swap requires a screwdriver, but it's really fine. As long as it's not glued in I don't care honestly.

The modular back is cool, specs look nice, lighter and smaller than my FP5 is a great thing, cuz this thing is heavy and the battery is mid.

It looks cool! Good direction I think. Of course I want a headphone jack, but I am learning to live without

Ultra fast charging is so good though. I've got a oneplus 12 and it charges from 0-100 in like 30 minutes.

I've never had one of those actually work...

Screwdrivers are pretty entry-level tools though.

You also have to remember to have that adapter with you

You can find adapters that can charge while still having a 3.5mm back

Looks like they hit the nail strong and sharp on this one. I am still using my 2019 Nokia which does not look like it's going bust anytime soon. Too bad, I would have loved to use the FF6

After having a phone without a 3.5mm port or a microSD card slot, the top 2 features I want on a phone are a 3.5mm port and a microSD card slot.

Shame Sony discontinued their Xperia 5 series, even if they were also excessively priced.

I know I know, but it was really convenient to keep a spare battery and do a quick swap on the fp4.

Surely, that impacts the battery longevity, right? Personally, I disable all fast-charging features and charge my phone overnight.

P.S. Sorry for calling you Shirley.

An issue shared with the headphones themselves

Think I'm getting it, my Redmi Note 8 is aging and I'm pretty sure the current batch of custom ROMs is basically the last apart from the fact that the kernel is no longer supported, and Xiaomi is closing the doors on custom ROMs more and more it seems. Yeah, the new FP isn't perfect but it seems good enough to pull the trigger, and while the Pixels seemed like a good alternative in some aspects, Google recently made it very clear where they see Android's future, and it's not more open.

It's really a small inconvenience, but using an adapter would mean I'd be prone to misplace it when I use my headphones on anything else, so it hardly makes anything better

The reason for not using a headphone jack is making it simpler for the manufacturer, one less connector to handle which also limits how slim a phone can be.

I'm not saying this is good for the consumer, but there are reasons for integrating the functionality into the USB-C port.

aw man, this is the first i'm hearing about discontinuation. apparently it's because people want larger phones?!

i have a 5 IV and it is by far the largest phone i've ever owned... i wish it was like an inch smaller. but it was the only model i could find that doesn't have a non-rectangular screen. these bloody camera cutouts are everywhere and i newer even use the front camera.

no jack, no deal
