I have a Fairphone 2 since 10 month. It comes with Android 6 and Google but I could flash easily Fairphone OpenOS, Android 7 without Google. I also use a Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 with Replicant. Would be cool if we could have Replicant on the Fairphone 2/3. :-)
Today, inspired by this discussion, I send the following question to Fairphone support:
"I'm interested in buying a Fairphone 3, but I'm not interested in getting proprietary Android.
Is it possible to have the Fairphone 3 shipped with AOSP as the Fairphone 1, with no Google apps or Play Store? I'd VERY MUCH prefer it that way. I know it's possible to flash it with AOSP myself, but I don't find that solution satisfactory."
I hope they'll answer that it *is* possible, but let's see.
Best
Carsten
