iPhone X, 2017 and still going strong! Will probably look at getting a new battery soon though, it’s at 81% health atm.

Samsung Galaxy S8, 2017. The processor is still plenty fast for anything I would want to throw at it, and I can still get through a whole day without charging and have 60-70% battery left. The camera leaves something to be desired though.

I mostly speak from my own past experience from similar problems. My solution may not work for you, but I'll always try my best to help as much as I can. If you want me to see your reply, make sure to quote my comment or mention me @WaggishOhio383, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

iPhone X 2017. Doubt I will upgrade anytime soon.

My mom on the other hand uses an iPhone 6 and that is on the brink of dying. Waiting on the ltt review before pulling the plug for a 12 for her.

I will recommend an NHu12s (or an NHd15 (maybe)) for your PC build. Quote or @ me @Prodigy_Smit for me to see your replies.

Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite (4GB RAM, 64GB ROM), released in Sept 2018, bought in Nov. 2018 ;

Still working fine as of today, no need for an upgrade until it starts being slow or gets damaged.

LTT 12 review came out which looked pretty positive to me.  It Didn’t go into the camera repair problem though.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

Huawei P30 Pro, really damn happy with it.

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

My take away was “might have been a winner” except for the repair issue, which I suppose might not matter so much for some users.  What I have found is making a part dealer only serviceable generally dramatically increases repair cost of that part, so a lot may depend on how often it needs to be repaired.

my iphone 6s is still needs a replacement screen but I love it

currently I am using a nokia 3.1c released IDK but its great so far for 100 bucks

Mine is starting to have slight battery issues after one year (92% health). Thing drains like 8% or so overnight without doing anything. Siri is apparently using 32% while Mail is using 46% just by notifications alone. Strange times indeed.

That sounds kind of in line.  A LiPo battery generally has a life of 8months to a year and a half depending on use, and the 6 series came with a9 or a10 CPUs.

On/Off button starting to give me trouble, other than that Im locked into a life plan (on that phone model, so if it breaks and I want to keep my plan have to find a used one) of $24/month 300 call minutes, unlimited text, unlimited 3g - it gets the job done affordably but if I switch phones my rate goes up - no need YET...accept

As of this week Youtube on the browser finally quit working (found out this morning) so I may replace it.  I need youtube videos in my life on the go.

Probably. The 6s was never known for stellar battery life to begin with. But man, 8% from just sitting idle at night. That's gonna hurt. And I've noticed sometimes it could drop like 2% at once while in use. Quick browse on Instagram? That could be an easy 3% gone.
