They're bringing the actual brand to the US? I suppose that's something. Murena has been selling Fairphone devices here for several years now.
Well. That's certainly a choice. Hopefully we have the option of not using Google services from the factory.
Fairphones allow for bootloader unlocking as well as relocking.
There's nothing stopping you from installing a supported custom ROM.

I'm aware. It's why I said this:
I would do it anyway, but a degoogled ROM with factory support would be nice.
In their EU store, Fairphone already sells degoogled Fairphones with /e/OS next to their regular Fairphones with Google.
Is this what you mean with
?
Or do you want them to get rid of the partnership with murena and do it themselves?
Exactly what I mean. With Fairphone bringing the brand to the US, I'm hoping that option carries over.
Thanks for the clarification. Hopefully they will do that.
