The Fair Phone: The World’s First Fair Trade, Environmentally Audited Smart Phone

  1. I’m all for fairness, but nearly $500 for a cellphone is way beyond my ability to be a philanthropist.

    1. To be fair, the list price of most similar smart phones is around $500 but signing the two or three contract subsidizes the cost and that’s why you get the phone for $199 or whatever.
