Ethical Smartphone Subscription Programs

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.
