My previous phone lasted me almost six years. It was still going strong, I only replaced it because I needed a bigger screen. My current laptop is 8 years old, it is still going strong even after very heavy use and abuse. So no, we don't need to replace electronics every two years, we just want to :P If you designed it as a $500 dollar business, there is no good way forward, and you are stuck. Disagree. If my living expenses are taken care of (500$ post tax is enough for me), then I can always look at improving this, or making bigger products
