Hi everyone,

I have a question. I currently own a Galaxy Z Fold 7 and am considering switching to a Fairphone 6 running Murena. My main priorities are using Proton Mail, my banking apps, and Android Auto. What should I know before making the switch?

Thanks!

    Thank you for sharing this; Android Auto has been one of two questions holding me back from taking this plunge.

    It makes me wish that murena had more inexpensive options so that I wouldnt be afraid of jumping in.

          Oh is it 4g only lol, no thanks. Don’t give up on the idea of buying used phones too. Just be careful to search for bootloader unlocked. Else you get a Verizon phone that’s only carrier unlocked. I flashed /e/os on an fp5, and a pixel tablet, it’s pretty easy.

              If you are on T-Mobile, or one of their subsidiaries like Mint mobile, you’ll have great coverage. I don’t know if any of the other carriers work though.
