Day 9

Hello All,

Not a lot to report today.

I am still testing all the corporate apps, I have tested skype calls to phones and other skype clients, which works fine as far as I can tell, and it appears the lag is in the UI rather than when calling.

All other corporate apps thus far seem to be ok.

Day 14

Hello All, After mentioning in an earlier post my concerns regarding the CPU of the FairPhone, and potential issues this may cause moving forward, I have now discovered that the CPU is incapable of supporting any versions of Android higher than the current v6. I think the only solution that FP have here is to replace the main board with newer one with a more current CPU, I would imagine now that they have 2 devices out in the wild, it should't be too hard for a refactor of the hardware, either replacing the mainboard with a new one, or making replacement boards for the current model. Ethically and from a asustainability point of view, this device really makes sense, im just not 100% sure on some of their hardware choices.

Day 7

Hello all, Ok, well I finally got an iPhone user to try the method I had discovered previously to switch from IOS to Android. Sadly this method of transfer which uses Google Drive, only transfers your calendar, pictures and contacts. While this may be enough for some users, it does not however transfer your SMS, iMessage chats, or apps. The transfer cable and back to back method found on the Pixel devices, and in Android 8 does have this funtionality, there exists an Apple app on the Google Play store (paradoxical I know!) that facilitates the transfer, sadly this feature is missing on the FairPhone and I dont expect it will be possible until they either upgrade the OS, or provide their own means of acheiving this moving forward. I am stll in testing phase with the corporate apps, and will continue to do so. Since I have overcome a fair amount of the niggles i've had the blog may be quiet for a while, whilst I use the device in regular, daily usage scenarios.
