Is it me or did they get slightly more vague on their marketing materials, wrt the environmental impact ( at least compared to fp5 ) ?
Also the battery seems a bit harder to replace, as you now need a screwdriver. It does appear to be more flush, so it may be due to size constraints.
Edit: and there’s “more” replaceable parts because the back is split in two. That split might prove better for durability tho, because pulling the back on their older phones felt like it would break every time.
I don’t mind having a few screws to remove every few years when I need to replace my battery.
Although there is another thing, I’m not sure but I wonder if it has any impact. My FP3 has made a few very bad falls and nothing ever broke. I wonder if its “bad” integrity makes it very good at dissipating the fall’s energy.

Screwdrivers are pretty entry-level tools though.
I know I know, but it was really convenient to keep a spare battery and do a quick swap on the fp4.
Then again it seems battery life is a lot better this time around, so this should ideally be less necessary.
That’s a pretty fair point, though I assume a spare powerbank would solve the problem nearly as well (albeit slower and with a cable).
