How to install the Biowaves HangHub correctly
Your guide to more flexibility with the Fairphone 5
The Biowaves HangHub makes your Fairphone 5 even more practical: You can easily wear it around your neck or wrist – securely, stylishly, and comfortably. In this article, we'll show you how to correctly install the HangHub and what carrying options you have.
🔧 What you need:
- Your Biowaves Case for Fairphone 5
- The HangHub adapter (consisting of two mounting plates)
- Your Fairphone 5
- A flat surface (e.g. a table)
🛠️ Step-by-step instructions
1) Prepare the case
Place the empty case on a stable surface.
Now insert the HangHub into the designated recess on the back .
You have two options:
- Use both parts if you want to use a necklace or a wide strap.
- Only use a single piece if you want to use a wrist strap - either left or right , depending on whether you prefer to wear the strap on your right or left hand.
Important: Make sure that the inserted part lies flat and is not pushed upwards by the retaining straps.
2) Insert Fairphone – upper part first
Place the Fairphone into the case with the top part first. Press the case flat against the surface to stabilize the HangHub.
3) Press in at the bottom
Now press the bottom part of the smartphone carefully but firmly into the case.
Make sure the HangHub does not shift or slip out.
4) Control
Does the case sit neatly and evenly over the edge of the display? Perfect. If not, start the process again.
🧵 Flexible carrying options
Once the HangHub is installed, you can use your Fairphone with any strap that has a carabiner or similar attachment hook.
We offer you perfectly coordinated carrying options – in macramé style and handmade in Germany from recycled organic cotton:
- Our smartphone wrist strap – ideal for when you're on the go and want to have your phone quickly at hand.
- Our smartphone necklace – comfortable and stylish, whether for everyday use or while traveling.
Of course, you can also use other straps – the important thing is that they can be attached with a carabiner.
💚 Saving tip: Buy HangHub in a bundle
If you want everything at once, we have two attractive sets for you:
- The hand strap bundle with HangHub, case and hand strap
- The necklace bundle with HangHub, case and necklace
Both bundles are reduced in price – and of course fully compatible with your Fairphone 5.
✅ Conclusion
The Biowaves HangHub makes your Fairphone even more versatile. When used correctly, the adapter sits securely in the case, giving you the freedom to wear your smartphone however you like—whether on your wrist, around your neck, or with your own lanyard.
