A phone that is not controlled by Apple, Google, or Microsoft would be great. But that is probably too complex a product for that amount of funding to cover.
A hard part would be finding a SoC vendor that will do long-term support. Considering Framework's model is long support cycles.
It's enough funding to show significant progress and raise more.
The payoff is bigger than any other category I can think of.
There are already phones focusing on repairability.
Like the Fairphone.
