Fairphone's latest promises a sustainable and morally aware alternative... but is it up the job?

- JUSTIN CONNOLLY

GOOD CALL?

IT doesn't matter when you upgrade your mobile - you'll never be more than a year away from the model you go for being superseded by something its makers say is much better.

Almost every major manufacturer of smartphones runs on an annual upgrade cycle. But Fairphone is one of the exceptions.

The company's goal is to make, well, fair phones - which means it doesn't demand you buy a new one every year and adheres to a few other more ethical principles.

Its latest phone - the Fairphone 6 - hit the market this week, almost two years since the last device was released.
