Asking because… On one hand I do see smartphones being released left-and-right, and they are rather integral to modern life
On the other hand I’m still chugging alone with my Pixel 6a that I bought 3 years ago with a replaced battery and a somewhat clogged charging port… and all my previous phones I only replaced when they have serious deficits that make them difficult to use
Wondering when you all replace phones. Please definitely mention it too if you ended up repurposing the old phone for something else


The xcover is a solid phone, waterproof, pretty shock proof and can survive falling into a hoover full of burnt engine oil and then the hardcore solvents required to remove said oil.
Had mine for 5 years now and the only actual damage is there’s some schmoo in the headphone jack.
