Fairphone says it's not going to deliver an Android 14 update for the Fairphone 4... because it's skipping ahead to Android 15. The OS update should start rolling out in early November. https://forum.fairphone.com/t/october-update/126805 #Fairphone4 #Android #Fairphone4

I’m running CalyxOS on my old Fairphone4, not because it’s a bad choice, but precisely to observe how incredibly behind this OS is on security updates.

My primary device today is a Pixel 9a running GrapheneOS, not this outdated, insecure, and privacy-compromised Fairphone 4.

This Fairphone never became my daily driver once I realized just how far behind it is on security and privacy. I used it from October 2022 until I switched to my Pixel 6a running GrapheneOS in early May 2023, and only recently upgraded to the 9a (see links below):

Now, heading into August 2025, and the Fairphone is on Android 15 with vendor and firmware updates on CalyxOS stuck at versions from March 5 for vendor, and June 1 Platform and June 5 for kenel updates, months behind in a critical security landscape. 😐
