Good news. What about the 50 Mpixel camera? I’m on FP4 but the 48 MP isn’t available yet: do you have some news to share?
https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues/4714
By the way: I love /e/ and don’t want to change.

The difference in the camera performance on the FP5 and the default camera has been noted by the development team. The team is working on finding a resolution to the issue and there is an issue around this in Gitlab specifically for the FP5. Issue is marked confidential by the tester and as such will not be vieweable to all. Will update once I have some postive results to share.

Great news for fairphone 5!!
I entered the period in my life of choosing my phone based on support of /e os, literally. Very good news for fairphone 5. It would be good plus to see support for volla because volla is alternative durable phone maybe some people need these pyshical features.

Excited for these news!
Will the Murena Fairphone 5 come with /e/OS S or T?

“OS version /e/OS Android 13”
(https://murena.com/shop/smartphones/brand-new/murena-fairphone-5/)

Which is T.

Hi @Manoj,

Some users had already received them Fairphone 5. Do you will share a documentation to install /e/OS on it ?

The FP5 with /e/OS has as yet not been shipped to any user. We will share details when the devices start shipping out.

Thanks for you reply :slight_smile:

I always thought /e/ was based on LineageOS. But now, the new Fairphone is awailable with /e/ close to launch, but there’s no build of Lineage for the FF5 yet.
I know the project grew, and murena partners with Fairphone directly now. Does somebody have an idea how they do it?
Did they surpass their former base and develop it further on their own? Did they get earlier insides on the specks of the FF5, which Lineage as a community project does not have? Can’t their work be used upstream, for a LineageOS version?

It was the same on the Fairphone 3, /e/OS was available before official (in their terms) LineageOS.

LineageOS can be forked and there are dedicated developers for /e/OS who can put in the porting work for a new device Murena want to promote and sell.

Quite possible because of the official partnership of Fairphone and Murena/ e foundation.
