Discussion when could we expect similar repairable phones like Fairphone in India ?

I agree with @iDJ bro to most of the points , though disagree about us not caring more about environment than them. even without repairing most often people here in India tend to use the phone or gadgets for long term. there is still unexplored niche the Fairphone company can aim at people who would support by purchasing phone and their other accessories. even consumers would be happy to have newer brand supporting modular feature . they spend more money on phone - just to see its value reduce or less support in few month or years . if they get better phone with upgradeable option along with repairable phone . so they would definitely support the company. in starting only few people might buy . gradually their sales would also increase.

I even agree with @hike bro regarding west countries practice of generation plastic waste/throw away culture . though it might seem little generalizing, .even in those countries there are some people who worked hard and still working to keep right to repair alive and make spare parts available to consumers. even our country is making progress toward right direction . Hope even in other countries they make all companies follow sustainable recycle, reuse ( through repair ) of electronic gadgets .
