Energy use

We designed the software for the Fairphone 2 to optimize energy use. However, the energy consumption of your smartphone depends on the way you use it. The piece of hardware that uses the most energy is the back-lit LED screen. Apps also account for a significant amount of energy use and some are more efficient than others.

A single battery charge will last:

• Standby (idle): up to 240 hours

• Calling on LTE (4G) (screen off): 16 hours

• Video streaming on LTE (4G): up to 4 hours


Plastic

Not all the plastic parts in your Fairphone 2 are marked to identify the material. This is something we will improve in new production cycles.
The rundown of the plastics we use:

• 50% post-consumer recycled polycarbonate - the best option available:

• the opaque back covers
• 
the rims of the slim back covers
• 
the plastic used on the modules
• the plastic used on the back of the screen

• regular polycarbonate - which has no alternative for transparent plastic that meets our quality needs:

• the transparent and translucent back covers 

• thermo polyurethane:

• the flexible rim of the regular back covers 


Packaging 


The design of the packaging unifies product box and shipping box. The result is a much smaller box made of Paperfoam: an innovative, eco-friendly material. It is compostable
 and uses much less energy in production than regular cardboard or paper pulp.
