Leaked renders reveal a modular design for the Fairphone 6, allowing for easy replacement of components.

The Fairphone 6 is expected to feature a new design with flat edges and a distinct neon-themed power button, available in black, white, and green color options.

The Fairphone 6 is rumored to launch on June 25th starting at €549, and could include a 6.31-inch pOLED 120Hz display, Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, and a 4415mAh battery.

Fairphone is expected to launch its sixth sustainable phone next week. And ahead of the release, we now have the alleged device in renders showcasing its design and prominent features.

When unscrewed, users are likely to be greeted with an option to remove the battery as well as it isn’t attached to the device with the help of glue but rather with additional screws.

The publication further notes that the same process is likely to be applied to the cameras, display, and speaker module — all serving the purpose of the sustainable phone, which the Fairphone 6 aims to be.
