Hey all, I broke my phone a few months ago and have been using a cheap Android since then and it's bad. Being on a budget, is it a good idea to go for an OGSE which will mainly be used for light texting and listening to music? I don't use socials or play games much so there isn't really a point in me getting a flagship, can't afford to anyways, just wondering if the OGSE is decent in 2023? Should I splurge a bit more and go for a 2nd Gen instead? c:

I just bought one and am using it over my 12. I love the size of it and it performs just fine for what I’m doing with it. I mean I use it for work taking calls all day, zoom calls for a few classes of mine, FaceTime etc. I imagine the next few years it’ll slow down because of its age but right now it’s aged like fine wine for an almost 8 year old device. I love it.
