Behind the Scenes of the Fairphone (Gen. 6) | Designing a Modular Icon

Описание: What does it really take to build a smartphone from the ground up? It is rarely a straight line from a sketch to the final product.

In our new four part video series, we are pulling back the curtain on the Fairphone (Gen. 6). We sat down with the engineers and designers who lived the journey to give you an unfiltered look at the making of a modular icon. We dive deep into the technical grit of the project. This includes the breakthroughs of achieving a slim flagship feel with twelve replaceable modules. We also discuss the hard trade-offs between battery density and repairability, as well as the honest moments where things went wrong during prototyping.

This is not just a product film. It is a masterclass in intentional design. We believe that if you own the device, you should understand the craft behind it.

Stay tuned for the next parts dropping soon.

----------------------
We’re Fairphone, from Amsterdam. We design quality tech that’s built to last and made better—for everyone who wants tech to fuel life, not interrupt it.

For over a decade, we’ve done what others said couldn’t be done. Modular phones. Built to last. Made fair from the inside out. Longer lifecycles, smarter upgrades, and real progress with every new generation. What sets Fairphone apart? It’s not just our values. It’s how those values show up — in the product itself.

At Fairphone, innovation doesn't mean adding more — it means adding intention. It means asking: what do people really need? And how do we design for that — while still thinking about the makers of our devices and the planet itself? Innovation doesn’t start on the surface. It starts at the source — in how a phone is made, who it empowers, and how long it lasts.

Go beyond the screen and uncover the hidden stories in the tech you hold. On our YouTube channel, you’ll find Fairphone how-to’s, tutorials, and behind-the-scenes videos that bring it all to life.
