   For an android phone, take a look at FairPhone:

                   https://shop.fairphone.com/en/

They're not the hottest specs (thickness, screen size, &c.), but if
you're not in the market for a status symbol, they've got a lot to
recommend them.  First, they're running around 750 Euros, they're
committed to upgrading the OS for as long as the phone's warranted, it's
open boot (you can replace the OS!), and a whole lot more.  I'd own one,
bur I'm a USAian, and they're limiting sales to EU countries.

   Hope this is worth the electrons.
