How long do you keep your phone before buying a new one? It is based on this article that especially Apple fanboys, buy a new phone every year when the new one comes out.

    Just smashed my iphone 11 in a derailer, which is a railroad related accident.

    I had bought it used about 8 years ago, the iPhone 11, and took the opportunity to spend 500$ on a pixel 10a and put graphene OS on it.

    Funny story: I set up the duress password, and afterwards, was setting up new users. Well one of the new users I setup us3d the same pin as as the duress password! D’Oh! Anyways… The duress pin works! Had to go to cricket to implement a new esim! Lol.

    Love the phone tho!

      You bought an iPhone 11 eight years ago?

      It wasn’t even released 8 years ago. Much less available used yet.
