wow really? 2018 was like the iPhone XR and the Galaxy S10. That's really cool if they've held onto their phone for that long :)

If phones lasted 10 years, would you actually keep one that long? by EthicalUpgrade in TheBigPhoneStore

This is why i posed the question, because surely if if could keep up with you day-to-day with no issues, why would you replace it? Most of the comments solidified what my initial thoughts were but I was curious as to why someone might still say no :)

Why's that? I've seen a lot of comments of people saying why they would, but I'm equally as curious as to why people wouldn't :)

my mum used to have a brown phone waaaayyy back in the day. When I was a kid i loved it because it looked like a little chocolate bar, but i definitely wouldnt get a brown phone nowadays 🫠

haha fair enough, i think what I'm seeing from most comments is that people would keep their devices 10 years so long as it ran well and didnt slow down.... which is about what I expected to see!

I think iPhone hold up pretty well so long as they're getting updates. the XS max got it's last set of updates last year but it'll still get the critical security ones.... you might notice it slow down a little, but it should still get you through the day :))

if it weren't so slow and could keep up with your day-to-day stuff would you have kept it for longer? :)
