Now if only they'd support Graphene OS or something like that. Preferably signed, so that banking apps would have a chance of working.

In the long run bonus - Linux support would be nice too.

Fairphones are pretty well supported with PostmarketOS which is mainline Linux. Audio support being one big feature that is missing on all of them. Luca Weiss from Fairphone is working on mainline Linux patches for these devices. The Fairphone 6 booted with Linux support on the first day it was released (though still missing many drivers)

I wish Fairphone would hire more People to work on Linux support
