I think my future phones are gonna be the I phones or Apple ones. I think I read online a year ago that they have a longer shelf life and last up to 5-6 years depending on how much you use it.
 
I will say, the old LG phone just took a .177 pellet, which broke the sound barrier, and it didn't pass through or even dent the back. 😀

I’ve got old worthless iPhones also but, not going to try those just yet.

Changing out my S9+ that i've had for more then 6 years for the Galaxy S24. Bought the new one at 50% off retail, which is insane pricing here.

I have a Samsung Z Flip 4 since 1.5 years now. It's decent but not great. Samsung's Android is driving me nuts sometimes. My previous phone is a Huawei P30 Pro, which was much better. I miss that. I still own it as a backup and wouldn't mind going back if my Samsung fails, but it's no longer getting security updates :/
 
Yeah, I own a Samsung Galaxy S7 plus, it's about 4 years old. See we let the battery get to 50% and then charge it. They said if you let the battery run down to 0%, the phone won't have a long life-span.
 
Recently picked up a OnePlus Nord 4. It's an upgrade from the original Nord I bought about 5 years ago. Very pleased with the new phone. It's nice to have a phone with fully metal shell again.

Out of interest, any one who has got a S25 Ultra, how do you find the speaker quality? I got mine just over a week ago but only got around to setting it up yesterday. It sounds quite a bit worse than my S23 Ultra. It has like a tinny sound to all voices, sounds quite low quality. Everything sounds shrilly, even notification sounds sound bad. I wonder if that is just how they are or I just got unlucky with a faulty unit. Seeing some posts online, there are users complaining about quality but there are people that are happy with theirs saying it is a big step up in that department.

Only problem for me is I ordered the 1TB Jet Black version from Samsung direct and it has been out of stock to even order since launch until today when they have finally got a delivery date of 24/03/2025 so over a month away so not sure if worth the hassle of potentially waiting over a month for replacement if it sounds just as bad / get unlucky with a faulty unit again if that is what it is. Best case scenario, a software update can fix it if it is a bug that is making everything sound low bit depth. Might just go back to the S23 Ultra.
 
We're looking for cheap reliable Samsung Galaxy smartphones, we'll have to get them at a Verizon store, sometime soon. One that you can make phone calls all over the U.S., storing and taking pictures, texting, and streaming music.
