Fairphone has announced its first US carrier partnership with Boost Mobile, adding Boost plan options when customers buy its $650 Gen. 6+ through Fairphone's website, WIRED reported. Buyers choosing that route will receive an eSIM activation email when their phone arrives. The arrangement does not put Fairphone devices in Boost's stores or online storefront. Customers must still buy from Fairphone or Amazon and then activate service. Fairphone's chief commercial officer described the agreement as the first phase of a longer collaboration. The company began selling phones in the US this summer.
