As the title says, the mainboard of my phone broke and repairing it would cost more than a new one. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'd like to be able to change the battery, if possible. Thanks for any help in advance.

I used to have a fairphone 3 actually, that's the one that died. Liked being able to replace, almost, everything. But right now it's a bit too expensive for me. Back then I had a better paying job. Thanks for the tip though.

Ah that sucks, didn't know the mainboards cost as much at the phone it feels like thats antithetical to what they were trying to achieve. Alas capitalism finds a way to ruin everything i guess.

They don't even sell the mainboards, so I would need to solder it myself or buy a new one.

That sucks more than I ever knew. Only Nokia could save us but they were gutted and now exist in name only
