    laughs in fairphone

    Edit : seriously though, it’s great. I avoid it if possible but I have no qualms charging it with my steam deck charger, which is very beefy, if the need arises

      If the steam deck charger has a voltage output option that matches your phone (5V) then there is no issue. Current is set by the load in this case since the power convertor in the charger is a tension (voltage) generator, not a current generator. So the phone won’t get too much current

        Ok, now this looks impressive, since they publish the API and CAD files for you to build your own add ons.

        I can’t think of add-ons I’d want - I’m more for smaller phones today, so the bulk doesn’t really appeal to me. But I’m eager to see what people create (may already be some stuff posted on 3D printing sites, I haven’t looked). Maybe an add-on battery that’s the size of the back but really thin?

        Edit: LOVE that it’s a plastic phone. Please, more plastic phones, they’re lighter and tougher.

        Wow I had a look and I thought they were much more expensive. Might buy one of these when I need to upgrade my fairphone 4.
