Fairphone OS – with the Google Mobile Services
The Fairphone 2 was originally shipped with Fairphone OS running Android™ 5.1 Lollipop. Since April 2017, Android™ 6.0 Marshmallow is officially available to every Fairphone 2 running Fairphone OS. Since November 2018, Android™ 7.1 Nougat is officially available to every Fairphone 2 running Fairphone OS. With an official upgrade to Android 9 we extended the lifespan of Fairphone 2 to over five years. Android 9 was rolled out in stages in April to May 2021. In March 2022 Android 10 was rolled out, marking the seventh year of software support for Fairphone 2.
Downloads of Fairphone OS are available in a Fairphone Support article.
Hint
The versioning scheme of Fairphone OS changed with the release of Android™ 6.0 to adopt the “Year.Month.Revision” convention already used by Fairphone Open.
