It is worth noting that both the hardware and software of Fairphone is heavily dependent on a Chinese company T2Mobile.

For those looking to avoid both US and Chinese companies, then the Jolla phone is the way to go.

    Sure, google play is a standard part of android, but you don’t need to have it, though you do need SOME kind of app installer. Samsung ofc has its own. Kindle Fires used their own and didn’t have Google Play iirc, but you could install it yourself.
