    I think we reached a point where flagship phones are good enough to be used for more than 5 years. But the battery won’t live that long, for. most people. I’ve replaced my previous phone, after four years of using it, for the most part because of the battery. I’m looking forward to replaceable batteries returning and helping at least some of us keep our phones for a few more years.

      Yes, for sure. My last phone lasted two months shy of 6 years, and was replaced because of a touch issue (a little strip across the screen no longer acted on touch, which made typing and other stuff completely impossible), and was only “fine” in regards to battery because it was a huge one to begin with (+4Ah for a 5" screen). The battery was definitely way worse than original, but still on par with some new phones today lol
