Fairphone 3 Plus technical sheet
The Fairphone 3 Plus suits buyers who want expandable storage and a removable battery, provided they can live with limited battery capacity. At 3,040 mAh, its battery is among the smallest of phones of its time, and 10 W charging is slower than on most. That is the key compromise for anyone who puts battery capacity first.
Its 5.65-inch IPS LCD display has a pixel density of 427 ppi, among the highest of phones launched around the same time. At 189 g, it is lighter than average. The 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, however, are below most phones of its time; storage can be expanded.
The 48 MP rear camera records 4K video at 30 fps but has no optical image stabilization. NFC, a 3.5 mm audio jack, dual SIM support and Android 10 cover useful everyday features. The battery is removable, a practical option for buyers who value replaceability.
Its overall NeoScore is 3.7. Battery capacity is among the weakest of its time and charging is slower than on most phones; overall performance is also worse than most phones launched around the same time. The Fairphone 3 Plus is best suited to buyers who value expandable storage and a replaceable battery, and are willing to accept limited capacity and modest hardware.
