More sustainable in the sense that you have a lesser carbon footprint, yes. Buy used.
Yeah but then you'll have a worn out battery you can't change easily (correct me in he latter if I'm wrong). I've seen some shops offering refurbished phones but the ones I saw had so high prices where you already may buy the new ones.
Yes, that is a point of concern, you'll need to find a way to replace the battery... which is where the Fairphone's design comes in again. Hopefully that will be the norm in the future.
