Honestly I'm not super impressed, even though I was hoping to be, because I would love to see more variety in the space. €380 is not all that much less than the just over €500 which can get you a Fairphone 5. The Fairphone 5 should have support until 2031, the GX6 Pro until 2032. Fairphone has a solid legacy of providing updates, which Gigaset doesn't necessarily have - add to that, the GX6 Pro has a MediaTek chipset, and those are notoriously difficult to support, the Fairphone 5 has a Qualcomm which is much better in that regard. The review mentions regular lags - problems I don't have with my FP 5 (unless I'm just not that sensitive). Honestly, the only upside I see to the GX6 (other than the price - but again the difference isn't that big IMO, especially considering Gigaset doesn't have the focus on sustainability and ethics) is the wireless charging, which I wish Fairphone would stop being so stubborn about.
