because some dont get security and feature/bug updates. for that i recommendeed simply to install something like e/os as an operating system (OS). It sometimes still support 10+ year old phones and likely continue to support them for a while.
The tech started to get so good that old phones are good enough so refurbishing them with another OS and not to trash them like profit focused companies want.
I have a Pixel 4a 5G mostly just because of the 3.5mm jack. I honestly don't know what I'll replace it with when it dies. I'm not exactly an audiophile, but I have too many headphones that I love. Ugh.
my old pair would do this every minute for a full quarter of the battery life. you could turn it off, but you had to turn a bunch of other stuff off as well. why is this even a feature on headphones? maybe say it once at the 25% mark or when first turned on around that range. making content unlistenable by repeating it every 60 seconds is not an idea anyone should ever have had.
While I'm kinda pissed that my skullcandy cassette headphones are cracked on both ears and I had to cover them in superglue... the battery lasts a long time. I charge them once a month. But I also don't use them unless I'm on the toilet lol... otherwise I just listen to music on my Bluetooth speaker or not at all.
