Fairphone 6+ gets its first US carrier partner in Boost Mobile

Boost Mobile has become Fairphone's first official US carrier partner. So you can now activate the Fairphone 6+ on Boost's nationwide 5G plans. The modular phone went on sale in the US back in August. This weirdly doesn't mean you'll find it in Boost's own online store, though, at least not yet.

You'll still need to buy the unlocked handset from Fairphone's own store or Amazon, and then activate it on a Boost plan. So how is this actually different from the previous situation? We're not sure, but Boost Mobile has put out an official press release about this 'partnership' that it seems to be quite proud of.

In case you need a refresher, the Fairphone 6+ comes with a 6.31-inch 1116x2484 LTPO OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate, the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset, 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, plus a microSD card slot, a 50MP main camera with OIS, a 13MP ultrawide with autofocus, a 32MP selfie camera with autofocus, a 4,415 mAh removable battery with 30W charging, an IP55 rating, and Android 16. Pricing starts at $649.99.

Its main pitch is still the modular design, with 12 user-replaceable parts, a five-year warranty, and software support through 2033, including six major Android updates. It's offered in Cobalt Blue, Forest Green, and Horizon Black.
