Ethical Smartphone Subscription Programs

Fairphone Easy Rewards Users for Keeping Devices Longer

It's commonplace for smartphone users to upgrade to the latest model every year or two, but the Fairphone Easy smartphone subscription program encourages consumers to take a different approach. The program from the ethical smartphone company works by having subscribers pay a monthly fee for the device with a discount applied each year that isn't damaged or replaced. Subscribers will enjoy €8 off per month by the third year to encourage subscribers to keep their device longer and in better condition.

The Fairphone Easy smartphone subscription program comes as a rental service for sustainable technology and could help to change consuerl mindsets surrounding device use. The program starts at €21 per month for 60 months with lower commitment periods like three months priced at €34 per month.
