New sustainable Fairphone 3 now available at Vodafone UK

  • The new ethical, reliable and sustainable Fairphone 3 smartphone is now available to order online and over the phone at Vodafone UK.

  • It costs from £32 per month (£49 upfront).

  • Add Amazon Prime Video, Spotify Premium and NOW TV Entertainment Pass or Sky Sports Mobile TV to your Unlimited or Unlimited Max plan for an extra fee.

The new ethical, reliable and sustainable Fairphone 3 – with a state-of-the-art 12 megapixel (MP) rear camera, 8MP front camera, 5.65-inch Full-HD display and a powerful 3,000 mAh lithium-ion battery – is now available at Vodafone UK.

Fairphone 3 is a sleek and durable modular phone from Dutch social enterprise Fairphone that closes the gap between performance and sustainability. Each phone is made from responsibly sourced and conflict-free tin and tungsten, recycled copper and plastics, and Fairtrade gold. All packaging is sustainable and reusable.

Fairphone 3 is available with unlimited data on Vodafone’s new unlimited plans:

  • Vodafone Unlimited Lite: for £40 per month (£9 upfront cost), offers speeds of up to 2Mbps. This service is aimed at users who want to chat on social apps, browse the internet and stream music.
  • Vodafone Unlimited: for £43 per month (£9 upfront cost), offers speeds of up to 10Mbps, making it ideal for customers who want to video stream over Standard Definition or High Definition without worrying about their data usage.
  • Vodafone Unlimited Max: for £47 per month (£9 upfront cost), gives users unlimited data at speeds as fast as the device and the network will allow. It is perfect for people wanting to take advantage of the latest technology – such as live virtual reality – watching live TV and sport in 4K with ultra-high definition (HD), real-time multiplayer gaming on the go, or downloading boxsets in super-quick time.

Add one of Vodafone’s content partners – Spotify Premium, Amazon Prime Video, Sky Sports Mobile or a NOW TV Entertainment Pass – to your Unlimited or Unlimited Max plan for an extra fee.

Vodafone customers can also enjoy unlimited gaming with three months free access to Hatch – the world’s first cloud-based mobile gaming platform built for the 5G network. This exclusive offer can be accessed through VeryMe, Vodafone’s loyalty rewards programme. It is also available on 4G.
