Now this is nice. Hopefully 3rd party manufacturers can also provide a longer life span for the device.

I think you hit the nail on the head with diminishing returns. I’m usually on a 5-6 year usage period too. I can understand the battery swap helping out but my last few phones have felt so sluggish after 4+ years so I start looking at new phones around year 5. I have a Pixel 7 now and I’m going to wait until end of support and then we’ll see what the offerings are then!
What 11 year old phone is still getting manufacturer updates?
That’s the secret, it’s not.
battery swap helps a lot with sluggish phones if a factory reset doesnt help, phones will supposedly throttle down to save battery when it starts getting bad
Yeah, I notice this on my smartphone. Above 60% its super smooth. Below that there’s a dip in performance and smoothness.
