we all know that no matter what they cost, they wont be built to last under capitalism. my 10 year old phone works just fine but cant install any modern apps. my 5 year old phone works just fine, and so many major banking and even government apps no longer work. bc we live in hell, we have to have a new phone with worse featureset, more lockdowns, that last even less and cost more bc “security” or whatever the fuck. i hope someday this changes
till then i try my very best to use fdroid for most apps (ofc minus banking and government bc we live in hell)
frankly the world would be better if smartphones cost 5000$ but then also lasted 15-20 years
