I replaced my Samsung S24 with a Fairphone 6 running /e/OS and used it as my daily work phone. Here's whether a de-Googled smartphone holds up for professional use.

It is worth noting that both the hardware and software of Fairphone is heavily dependent on a Chinese company T2Mobile.

For those looking to avoid both US and Chinese companies, then the Jolla phone is the way to go.

    I don’t think it’s worth it. A lot of these issues are well known on the Fairphone forums so they’re clearly not specific to my phone. The second I find a suitable replacement I think I’m done. I like the idea of a Fairphone but they’re on their sixth device now and still can’t manage stable software.
