before my current phone I always bought secondhand. the only reason I got this one new was because I couldn’t afford the up front payment of a second hand phone so got a new one on contract to pay off over 3 years. Once my contract runs out I won’t be upgrading I’ll just keep this one until I run it into the ground or possibly sell it to buy a second hand one that has a less shit camera. My last iPhone I had longer than anyone thought was possible, and it was second hand to me! (iPhone SEs are almost unbreakableo swear). Ive never smashed an iPhone even after dropping it a lot (CASES PEOPLE CASES) and while I know planned obsolescence is a thing, I’ve found with phones that people use it to justify buying new ones much more than is necessary. I don’t buy any tech new if I can help it! Save the planet and save your money!

Last phone I had was a refurbished iPhone 7 Plus and last year it finally broke beyond repair (after about four years) so I bought a refurbished iPhone 11 Pro

Quite potentially (hopefully not) the last great smartphone size. As powerful as any other model on the market with the best hand feel. I’ll use this bad boy til its out of service.

i also had an SE for a while and i swear this brand is indestructible. i had it for 4 years and even the little stand on the back stayed functional the entire time. i am not careful with my phone whatsoever as well. so many times i dropped it from in some ridiculous way expecting something to be broken but literally nothing. i was going through a new phone screen every year or so before. i bought the same brand for my new phone and i will probably never buy anything else

I am by no means traditionally religious, but I fully understand how being in the presence of beautiful stained glass can feel like being with god. ALWAYS stop off at a church on the way if you think it might have good stained glass. The bluebells in the bottom right corner of this made me loose my breath for a moment.
