Fairphone 6 Specifications and Design Leaked Ahead of Launch

The Fairphone 6, an eagerly anticipated addition to the sustainable smartphone market, is expected to be officially unveiled in late June 2025. Recent leaks from WinFuture have revealed detailed specifications, design features, and pricing information about the device. The Fairphone 6 aims to maintain its reputation for repairability while offering a mid-range smartphone experience.

According to the report by WinFuture published on June 19, 2025, the Fairphone 6 will showcase two back covers: one for the main body, which conceals the cameras, and a lower panel that can be easily removed with visible screws. This design allows users to access the battery, which is not glued down, although changing it will require additional screws to be removed. The phone will be available in three colors—black, green, and white—allowing users to personalize their devices further.

In line with Fairphone’s commitment to sustainability, the Fairphone 6 will feature various removable components, including a 50-megapixel main camera, a 13-megapixel secondary camera, and a 32-megapixel front-facing camera. Additionally, users will have the option to replace the display, speaker, and USB-C charging port, enhancing the device's longevity.

The specifications of the Fairphone 6 are relatively standard for a mid-range smartphone. It will reportedly feature a 6.31-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 256GB of internal storage (expandable via a MicroSDXC slot), 8GB of RAM, and a 4,415mAh battery. It will be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor, placing it firmly in the mid-range category. The expected price point of approximately €550 (around $630) aligns with its features.

The Fairphone 6 is anticipated to have an IP55 rating for water and dust resistance, making it suitable for light exposure to water but not for complete submersion. The Fairphone brand has consistently promoted ethical consumerism, and the Fairphone 6 is positioned as a device that not only offers functionality but also aligns with environmentally conscious practices.

Daniel Cooper, a technology journalist at Engadget, remarked on the Fairphone 5, the predecessor to the Fairphone 6, stating, "If you’re looking to pick up a mid-range handset that you can keep going for twice as long as any other phone on the market, and you want to do a bit of good in the process, this is probably the phone for you. It’s not often the view from the moral high ground is this comfortable." This sentiment underscores Fairphone’s mission to create a sustainable and ethical alternative to mainstream smartphones.

As the launch date approaches, the Fairphone 6 is expected to capture the attention of consumers seeking a device that combines practicality with a commitment to sustainability. With its emphasis on repairability and ethical production, Fairphone continues to challenge the conventional smartphone market and offer consumers a viable option that aligns with their values. The Fairphone 6 could further establish the company as a leader in the sustainable technology sector.
