Fairphone 6 leaks ahead of launch

There’s a new Fairphone device in the works and WinFuture shared our first look at it. Fairphone 6, which is expected to launch on June 25, is shown in its Horizon Black color. This will be one of the three available color options alongside Cloud White and Forest Green.

The device appears to have a flat frame instead of the rounded one on its predecessor and a bright yellow button on the right-hand side. It remains to be seen if this is the volume slider or an entirely different key. The bezels surrounding the screen appear slimmer too and we can see the device will once again sport a punch-hole cutout for the selfie cam.

Although we don’t get a proper look at the back of the upcoming device, the new report suggests Fairphone 6 will feature an updated modular back design consisting of “upper” and “lower” parts with contrasting colors.

The new device is expected to feature a plastic frame and back and a series of new interchangeable accessories that attach to its back. These include a card holder, a lanyard, and a ring for easier one-handed use.

Fairphone 6 is expected to feature main (wide) and secondary (ultrawide) cameras. In usual Fairphone fashion, most of the key components like the display, camera sensors, speakers, microphones, and charging port will be user-replaceable.

Fairphone 6 will be available with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage and is said to retail for €549.
