The fp5 on Fairphones website is €529 with at least 8 years of software updates
Even if iPhones were marginally cheaper, they carry with them vendor lock-in, poor repairability, and a track record of horrendous working conditions for the workers assembling them
To me it would still be worth a small premium to avoid those drawbacks even if the fp5 was more expensive per year
Comparing the cheapest iPhone with the FP5, the latter is still cheaper per year, even if I never have to replace anything (such as the battery)
