Back cover problems on the Fairphone 3 — when to act?
Like its predecessor, the Fairphone 3 has a modular, swappable back cover — a feature that makes repairs cheap and easy. The back cover can crack from drops, fade after prolonged use, or stop closing properly due to mechanical pressure.
Especially important: on the FP3, the back cover protects the removable battery and the module slots. A damaged housing part should be replaced promptly.
