God I miss my S10. It really was a perfect phone. I finally had to let it go when the screen cracked. Replacing it cost more than a refurbished S22 or S23, and I couldn't justify purchasing another S10, since it will probably fall victim to planned obsolescence soon.
My S10e is cracked but only all over the backplate. Which is also no longer really attached to the phone. I'm driving this thing into the ground.
I still use my s10e every day on my commute with the headphone jack plugged into a radio tuner so I can listen to podcasts
Still using the S9 with only the back and sides cracked. Only put 50€ into replacing the battery and jack. This has got to last until 2027 at least until replaceable batteries hopefully become a thing again.
How do you crack the sides of an s9? It's metal...
I meant the curved sides of the front screen. The metal is just scratched.
Oh duh haha
I have an old S9 right here on my desk. I cracked the screen, and took it to one of those screen replacement places, and he asked if I had insurance. I told him I didn't, and he said, wellllllll it's going to be a lot more expensive than you think to replace this screen.
That wraparound screen they had was basically also the frame of the phone - you're not so much replacing the screen as you are moving the rest of the components to a new phone body. I wasn't sold on value of that wraparound screen in the first place; this didn't improve my opinion of it.
We put a plastic screen protector on it and a new case, and I used it for a few months until we were ready to upgrade phones.
I'm really hoping that Framework release a phone one day, given how good the Framework 16 laptop is.
S9+ still going strong after over 6 years. I dread the day I will need a "new" phone.
