I'm not poor but phones do not interest me in the slightest, so while all the stupid people participate in some sort of mobile phones arm race, I just keep what I've got until it breaks.
Well, it happened last week and all the dorks at work were all "OMG you have to wait until the Pixel 8 Pro is announced!* or "Dude right the iPhone Bully XL Max 69 is only £1200".
Me being clever just ordered the cheapest mid-range Sony I could find because rdrama.net is actually far more lightweight than a lot of people realise so I don't need heaps of pointless power that uses the battery up in a morning.
Anyway, you guys, it has now been 48 hours since I last charged my phone and guess what percent my battery is on?
59%!
Incredible.
Lesson for everyone: buy mid-range phones. They're better.

My last phone lasted like 5 years, then when I got a new one I just bought last year's Pixel for like $300 because I wanted wireless charging and the fancy wide angle camera. I think it's funny when people keep up with the joneses with smartphones and then all they do is use tiktok and gmail. You could do that shit from a $100 OnePlus
