6 years for my last one.

but planning 3 years on this one

6 is a good amount. Must have felt like a big upgrade. I usually do 3.

i went from an Galaxy S8 to a Galaxy S20. big difference

When I brake em. 2-3 yrs usually.

Do you use a case?

Yea, I usually brake em at werk. Drop tools on em, crushed against my leg, I ran one over when wifey was pregnant lol. All had cases

When the manufacturer stops supporting the OS.

I'm on my third smartphone, second android. Last phone was good for like 4 or 5 years.

Nice. Im also on my second Android. Both Samsung.

When (and only when) it breaks. Mine has 5 years and I pretend to keep using it.

4 months ๐Ÿ‘

You upgrade your phone thst often really?

๐Ÿ’ฏ %

Guessing you use Android and bounce around?

Apple all the way. Never had android ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

I run 2 businesses with my iPhone.

How about you?

Nice. So what do you switch every 4 months? New iPhone yearly. I upgrade every 3 years usually.

Fair ๐Ÿ‘

Use to every 1.5 years. Had this cell since 2019. Been thinking to upgrade soon.

When the battery is fucked up.

Replace the battery instead ๐Ÿ˜‰

I did that few times myself, but on the new one is difficult.

To quote..Louis Rossmann: Fuck Apple: part โ™พ๏ธ

Every year, but only because I get cash I have to use from work and testing apps on the latest hardware is important.

All android no cr๐ŸŽpple

Thats awesome. What is your go to device right now? Pixel? Samsung?

I'm a diehard Note user. The Spen adds so much functionality to the device, makes copying text easy, and possible anywhere, and makes screen shots, etc way more useful.

On an S23 Ultra right now which is basically the new Samsung Note line.

However I also really like One+.

I've got a 0ne+9 Pro that is my "burner device" that is legit awesome. Great battery life easily root able, lots of custom roms for different security reasons. It's another great option.

How do you feel about samsung removing the note line? Do you use a case to hold the s pen? Using an s20 and would love to try the pen out. I need to upgrade.

The s23 ultra is the Note 23. the pen fits inside the phone.

Also if you want to talk cases this is the best one I have ever used. https://amzn.to/3PvDzSi

Pitaka makes solid hardware. I love the case and the magnetic wireless charging car mount is amazing.

I hold off for as long as I can or when thereโ€™s a significant lack of capabilities on my current phone.

So basically until Iโ€™m made fun of by Gen Z.
