Small size. Big impact.
Made with fair and recycled materials
We integrate Fairtrade Gold into the Fairbuds’ supply chain and invest in Fairmined Gold Credits, Fairtrade Silver Credits and Cobalt Credits to account for the Fairbuds’ gold, silver and cobalt footprint. They also contain recycled materials such as rare earth elements and post-consumer recycled plastic.
Made in fair factories
The people who help to assemble the Fairbuds are paid a living wage bonus that helps to bridge the gap between minimum wage and a decent salary. Plus they get an active voice in improving working conditions with factory management.
Electronic waste neutral
The Fairbuds are electronic waste neutral. What does this mean? The Fairbuds weigh 78 grams with the charging case. So, for every Fairbuds we put out into the world, we make it a point to responsibly collect and recycle 78 grams of electronic waste.
Climate conscious
Like all our products, the Fairbuds were designed to be climate conscious. The Fairbuds are designed to last really long, thanks to its modular approach. The longer it lasts, the less impact on climate it has. It uses recycled materials in the production process, reducing carbon emissions. For the remaining emissions, we invest in Gold Standard-certified carbon reduction projects.
Your sound. Uninterrupted.
Active Noise Cancelling for the win
For pristine sound in less than perfect conditions, switch on ANC with advanced wind noise reduction.
Crystal Clear Calls Always
Say hello to clearer phone calls and voice recordings, thanks to Environmental Noise Canceling (ENC), powered by a six-microphone array that vastly reduces background noise.

Here’s what people say about Fairphone
Thanks, been on the lookout for products such as yours.
As I was already used to; high quality sound from Fairphone. The first set of earbuds were great, these, along with equalizer app are as good, if not; better
For that price, they are obviously not the best earbuds on the market. But when you download the app and tune the EQ (+3 dB at both 2400 Hz and 12000 Hz) they sound really good!

Frequently asked questions
Why have you launched the Fairbuds?
Our mission at Fairphone is to establish a viable market for sustainable consumer electronics. Many of the problems that we see with smartphones, especially around e-waste and issues in the supply chain, also apply to audio products. In 2021, the Fairphone TWS earbuds were our first step into this new product category. They incorporated longer battery life and Fairtrade gold in the supply chain, but were, otherwise, an off-the-shelf design that was not repairable. Our plan was therefore always to improve on the design later on. The Fairbuds are the result of these efforts.
What warranty do you offer on the Fairbuds?
There is a standard 2-year warranty on the earbuds, plus a one-year extended warranty if users register their Fairbuds online. That said, due to the modular design and the repairability, we expect the Fairbuds to last a lot longer than three years.
Which parts of the Fairbuds can be repaired or exchanged by the user?
Earbud (Left and/or Right)
Earbud Battery and Silicon Ring
Earbud Tips
Charging Case Outer Shell
Charging Case Core
Charging Case Battery
Are the Fairbuds water-resistant/waterproof?
The Fairbuds have IP54 certification, meaning they are sweat and weather resistant, but not completely waterproof.
What is the Fairbuds app used for?
The Fairbuds app offers users more control over their earbuds, allowing you to change equalizer presets and tune your Fairbuds to your personal preferences. You can use the app to access the latest Fairbuds updates as well, ensuring better longevity of your device, with potentially new features, and the occasional bug-fix. The app also offers users a quick start guide, tutorials, support articles and a customer service touchpoint. Learn more about the different components that make up your Fairbuds, and order replacement parts through the app if your Fairbuds are in need of repairs.
