With apple’s recycled event, I’ve come to say I’m sick of phones.
Phones are already “perfected”. They can call. Run apps.
We really need to focus on efficiency. E.g, lowering price, increasing battery life, improving software
But nooo. Add a bunch of extremely minor features with a 50% faster chip so you can watch ads at 1080p instead of 720p. I don’t care! Give me a phone that’ll last me 5 years and has a battery life that lasts a week. I don’t need this crap every year. Why do we live in a situation where people think they need to buy a new phone yearly?!
I say a phone should get at minimum 5 years of software support.
I’m exaggerating here, but a lot of phones make it hard to replace the degrading battery. I’m in support of the replaceable battery mandate the EU is passing.
My phone is five years old (XS Max) and on its original battery. Lasts all day still somehow. I love it. I’m only upgrading it this year because I could use more storage space (256GB fills up fast with how many photos I take!)
