Ifixit gives fairphone 5 a 10/10 on repairability and maintanence
(www.ifixit.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Iirc the chipset, QCM6490, will lose support after 2028 meaning the device will get at least 5 years of security updates and not the promised 8. Pretty sure that's why grapheneOS doesn't/won't support it since the company doesn't keep to their promises
Edit: found grapheneOS' response again I'm not saying Fairphone is a bad company but the way they are advertising the fp5 seems kinda shady IMO based on the specs of the device. At most you'll get partial updates after 5 years since Qualcomm will drop support which is still great but don't assume your device will be as safe as a fully updated device. Then again fairphone may commit to extending the life of the QCM6490 but not sure if they'll be capable of that so we'll just have to see. I apologize to anyone who got offended for some reason I was just expressing my opinion based on the track record of the company and the specs of their device

Same thing also said by the developer of DivestOS. Fairphones are not fully patched until anywhere close to their promised support. https://forum.fairphone.com/t/is-fairphone-really-interested-in-sustainability/99302
Which is why I don't think I'm getting the fp. I don't want to pay a premium price for a less secure phone than one with graphene
