While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys' opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

Aux vs Bluetooth is not analogous to Betamax/VHS. It's more like WiFi and ethernet. WiFi can replace ethernet most of the time, but there are clear benefits to wired connections.

How is this not technically also the same? WiFi can replace Ethernet all of the time with degraded connectivity outside of super secure offerings. The same argument is made for production quality vs home release quality.
