I'm still using my iPhone SE (2016). I've changed the battery once, and the screen twice (I should probably stop dropping it).
Changing the screen takes ~20 minutes, and a new screen costs ~16$.
I will probably upgrade to the iPhone SE2 at some point, but given that my phone works perfectly for what I use it for, paying 550$ for an upgrade just does not make sense.
- YeGoblynQueenne 6y agoWell, I'm using an HTC phone from 2014. I haven't had to change or repair any parts and it costs about half an iPhone, I think. To clarify, everything seems to be working just fine. Unfortunately, Google. But that's the only problem with it. I was actually going to stick with a flip-top but then I started working as a dev and figured that getting a smartphone would give me some extra cred. Nowadays it's probably the other way around, I should probably dig out my old fliptop and use that, to show how 1337 I am.

I guess that if I had been more careful, i wouldn't have had to change anything, except for the battery (the old battery was "fine", ~65-70% capacity, but given that changing it takes 15 min and 20$, and makes the phone feel like brand new, it is a change that I happily do). Can you comment on the battery life of your 2014 HTC phone after 6 years of use? What kind of battery does it have ?
