It's selling eight times faster than the Nothing Phone (2a). Nothing unveiled the CMF Phone 1 this past Monday, and the phone went on sale earlier today....
I’d love to buy a Fairphone.
But sadly it is behind in so many features,that I simply can’t.
-no water proof (sadly a requirement in my profession)
-no wireless charging (why? just why? There is no good reason for them to not include that, especially as it is finally adopted by a lot of spaces, e.g. in airline seats,etc.)
mediocre camera
I counted the days towards Fairphone releasing the featureset of the Fairphone 5 and was so disappointed.
I am up for other recommendations, though.The first person to name google will be downvoted,though. I literally wrote my lawyer yesterday as they are treating service cases in a illegal manner.
If people are buying this instead of other repair-oriented brands like Fairphone, then they’re not concerned about repairability but price.

Waterproof and repairability are really at odds.
They really aren’t: it’s just going to add a little thickness, weight, and cost to the phone. Screws and gaskets aren’t exactly rocket science.
Yeah,but it’s possible - maybe not everything,but for a lot of components it is possible.
Fairphone isn’t available in many parts of the world. CMF’s sales are boosted a lot by it’s presence in India where Fairphone is not an option.
They could be concerned about both.
