Maybe design award, he talks about how everything is the same but was impressed with the Magic V2 because of it’s thinness and how it manages to cram a larger battery than other foldables. While that’s impressive, I don’t really think it’s groundbreaking. I feel repairability should also be a consideration for design since most slabs and foldables look identical to each other and the Fairphone is miles ahead of everything else in that regard.
I didn’t see the video, but what were the categories? Anything the fair phone could win?
My understanding is that the phone uses decently old tech.

Sorry if this looks weird I don’t know how to format correctly
Thanks! Would it legitimately qualify for any of these awards?
Maybe most improved?
Probably MVP, but it’s a US awards show. It won’t include EU exclusive phones obviously.
Don’t think so. MKBHD doesn’t really test repairability so that’s probably why it isn’t a category.

I didn’t see the video as well, but environnemental impact or repairability would have been the top choice.
Edit: best battery maybe, since you can replace it.
