A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The only caveat to phones is their batteries. Batteries have a limited lifespan, and users can't easily change the batteries in current phones.
There's also the risk that the mobile device manufacturer will brick your phone if you try to replace the battery yourself or have a 3rd party do it.
From a hardware spec standpoint, though, most flagship phones could easily last a decade.
