Nearly half of our readers now wait three years or more to replace their phones as spec upgrades have plateaued.

My previous phone I had for almost a decade I think, it was an s5 galaxy I think. I used it until it refused to turn on.

    The previous three phones I replaced were because:

    • Fell off a shelf and shattered to the point of unusability
    • Stopped turning on
    • I wanted to try Graphene, but wanted a fall back if I broke something (after becoming confident Graphene would meet almost all my needs, I ended up sending the backup phone to a friend, so it didn't go to waste)
