My biggest surprise with the Fairphone 6 was its presence of a 3D time-of-flight sensor on the back, in lieu of a third sensor. These were popular on phones a few years ago but largely as a way of bulking up a specs list, and rarely did they actually contribute much. But on the Fairphone 6, the impact is noticeable as portrait photos have incredibly accurate background blur, getting blurrier with greater distance from the subject.

What is that, tho?
Looks like a means of detecting how far the phone is from an object, then calculating the depth of field adjustment needed to supply the “right” amount of background blurring, making the object stand out in the resulting image. Good for making portrait subjects stand out from their surroundings, for example.

The most eco-friendly phone is the one you have right now: make it last as far as possible, changing battery or screen if you have to, instead of buying a new one.
I guess a better description would be the most eco friendly phone you can buy.
I hate that every title¹ is a click bait nowadays. I normally don’t click anything that reads like this.
Edit: ¹ in articles, reviews, everything online
It would also help if people would not spread articles with click bait titles…
