Here's the benchmarks: link. CPU - Fairphone 5: 1100 / 2800. Apple A11 CPU (iPhone 8/X): 1092 / 2352.
I don't quite get where sustainability comes from. You can buy similar (hardware-wise) Samsung with 4 year support for twice as cheap. 300$ difference is enough to change battery and screen even at overpriced Samsung's official repair service.
