Nobody should feel a strong need to upgrade after only two generations. Same deal with most tech like GPUs and CPUs.

I use my phone a lot and my Pixel 7 is fine. The primary factors driving my last couple upgrades were battery degradation and software support. Neither should be a big problem with a Fairphone.

I’m also trying to decide whether to stick with the Pixel/GrapheneOS ecosystem or go for Fairphone.

How hard/expensive was it to replace your battery? I looked on iFixIt and it seemed a lot harder than my orevious phones.
