Incredible work tbh. Mind me asking what phone that is?
I got 5 years out of my last one and 3 so far on current one and feel like I'm doing well with 8 years from two phones.
Samsung Galaxy S2. I've been always using it only for calling, texting, checking the weather in the morning, and automatic sync with my watch after a run (and perhaps with some light Internet browsing), so combined with a phone case, the phone has seen very little outside world, which limited any potential damage. I did have to replace the battery twice, though.
Now that my Canon Powershot died, though, I'm still considering whether to upgrade to a phone with good optics or get a new camera. They are roughly the same price.
S2 was a great phone in fairness. If you do upgrade the phone you'll be shocked at how far screens have come in that time. Cameras too but more on the mid range and higher phones. Cheaper ones are still taking mid pictures.
