The Fairphone Gen 6+ is the first Fairphone you can buy officially in the United States. Fairphone’s August 18 press release says the unlocked phone ships through Fairphone.com and Amazon, with support on T-Mobile and AT&T. The US shop lists it at 649.99 US dollars.
What the Fairphone Gen 6+ adds
This is not a rebadge of last year’s Fairphone 6. It is the first Fairphone with 12GB of RAM. It also uses Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chip. The 6.31-inch LTPO OLED can run from 10 to 120 Hz. Storage starts at 256GB and can grow with a microSD card up to 2TB. The main camera is a 50-megapixel Sony Lytia 700C with optical stabilization. Android 16 ships clean, plus a new Fairphone Gallery app that owners asked for.
Fairphone also adds Cobalt Blue next to Forest Green and Horizon Black. The company says that hue points at its fair-cobalt work, not just a paint job. You get a five-year warranty and software updates through 2033. A T5 screwdriver ships in the box.
Repair first, then the US carriers
Owners can swap 12 parts themselves. The battery is user-removable. Fairphone says the Gen 6+ is 100 percent e-waste neutral in the US market, and that more than half the phone by weight uses fair or recycled materials. iFixit already gave the Gen 6 a 10 out of 10. This follow-up keeps the same modular pitch.
Who can buy it, and what comes later
“We’re bringing that revolution stateside,” said Fairphone CEO Raymond van Eck. The press note says the phone is unlocked. It names T-Mobile and AT&T. It does not promise Verizon. Fairphone’s US product page also has a carrier checker. Stock can move. Therefore check the shop before you assume a same-day ship.
Fairphone also teases Fairbuds 2 for later in the fourth quarter. Those earbuds stay light on specs for now. This US door is still a long way from the Fairphone 2 slim case we covered in 2016. For another 2026 phone beat, see our note on Google Pixel 11 ads.
