[β] sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf [S] 3 points 2 years ago (4 children) What did you get last year? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [β] Jesus_666@feddit.de 8 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Not the user you responded to but in my case nothing. My Xperia 10 III is still working well after three years so there no reason to buy a new one. Okay, I might be out of the OS support window so I might want to do see how AOSP does on my phone. But hardware-wise there's really no reason to upgrade (and much less to a comically expensive device like in the video). permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf [S] 3 points 2 years ago The next couple years will be interesting. They can't just throw more processor speed at us and call it a day, so will be intriguing to see how they overcome that. permalink fedilink source parent [β] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) "don't need to upgrade my phone every year". And neither do I. Currently running a (horror!) 2018 flagship on DivestOS. It's faster than anyone's phone that I know. Everyone is surprised at how fast my phone is. Paid $80 for it 3 years ago. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf [S] 1 point 2 years ago How is it so snappy? permalink fedilink source parent [β] shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) onePlus Nord N200 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf [S] 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) That's a good purchase permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I am enjoying it.

My current average phone life-time is 7 years, and the majority were second-hand already. I've spent under $400 a year on all my tech combined, including phones, tablets, desktops, laptops, accessories, toys, and anything else with a battery. If you get good tools, you don't need to replace them. permalink fedilink source parent
