People get stuck on the repairability bit, but the two times I had to make candybar repairs I was able to do so regardless. The Fairphone is hyped up, but I'm in the market for flagship spec and I absolutely must have a headphone jack, so it doesn't suit me.
Comment on What android phones do you recommend and why?

What about the newest fairphone which is being released this fall, not thc best for your bucks, but built a bit more ethically than the others, and a modular design enabling eeasy repair*
I don’t have one, but heard good stuff about the 4 and consider getting the 5 as my 5 year old Huawei is aging

Same boat here, headphone jack is nonnegotiable.

I have the 4 and I relly like it. It can't compete performance wise with other phones at the same price point, but the mission is great and you get a long life out of it and good software support.
I am running iodeOS right now and it is just great, couldn't be happier. I am however not running games on it or anything, so not the biggest power user here...

I have it, like it. Works good but no headphone jack is kinda weird. My screen does have a ghost input issue though which is very common for these phones. Recent update kinda fixed it but yeah its a hardware issue mainly so that kinda sucks.
