I think it is better to buy a 500 dollar phone with replaceable parts than a sub 100 that either does not function well from start or starts to deteriorate (typically less quality and glued battery or under dimensioned charger) within a year. It does not need to be a 1000 dollar iphone to consist of quality parts. We can wait for 5G to become main stream before requiring it.
