Current phones 6 years old. I’ll upgrade this year and hope to get a similar length of time out of it. Phones are made of minerals likely mined in the DR congo using child labour. I cannot in good conscience support that industry more.

I’m upgrading because my phone is getting really slow, overheating frequently and will likely not receive a software update this year.
