Instead of producing extra ewaste, perhaps in the future pinephone's could just have the mainboard and maybe the screen replaced to upgrade them to the latest version. That way you re-use as many parts as possible.

I know you guys are planning on selling parts for the phones, but is this something that might be possible too?

YES
 There are mentions on most of their projects about having "up-dateable Hardware"
   However that seems like it may take a while.
