$2,150 for an iPhone? (theguardian.com)

I wonder if we'll see a Cuba-like effect, with a proliferation of repair shops, DIY culture, and 10-year-old phones.

I feel myself wanting to hold on to my wife's old iPhone 8 a bit longer, even though it went out of support last week.

still use my 2015 galaxy s6 every day

nothing has been repaired or replaced on it, same battery also

i was curious how long it would last so i kept using it. i run it in low power mode with screen dimmed. it only sees wifi, no actual phone calling. a lot of apps dont work anymore for it, but it plays videos fine, lets me take notes, and i can browse the internet so thats more than enough. fdroid app store is helpful to find older versions of apps that work
