People don’t upgrade phones every year anymore—longevity matters.

    Apple sources the worse lithium batteries known to man, they last a year and destroy themselves. I have no idea why you’re bringing Apple to this discussion.

    I’ve dealt with Chinese devices with batteries that still worked fine six years after being bought.
