I’ve had this phone for 5 years and the battery is starting to die fast… also voice control is randomly activating.
I don’t think I can afford another myself so when this becomes unreliable the next one will probably be a basic android from Colesworth. And I’ll keep this plugged in purely as a tiny drawing tablet until it dies. Hate planned obsolescence

Can recommend the cheapo oppo one I got a while back. I think it was $150 thereabouts. A15 I think. Was only supposed to be a temp thing as new govt. apps wouldn’t go on the old iphone and needed those quickly… but it’s fine so I just kept it.

That sounds like a great option if it lasts well. I don’t have the ability to keep buying expensive ones!

Had it for a few months now and so far still going. Battery / camera isn’t great, not exactly ‘snappy’ either but honestly after this I just don’t see myself bothering w/ high end mobiles anymore.

you could always try cash converters on line or go in person

I dunno, anything there is probably stolen
