Mobile phones and smartphones are necessities of life. Since it is not a cheap item, many people may be worried about when to replace it. A survey by the Mobile Society Research Institute revealed when people around the world replace their smartphones and what they consider important when doing so. Half of people replaced their smartphones due to “deteriorating batteries” The Mobile Society Research Institute, which investigates the usage and actual state of mobile ICT, asked mobile phone owners nationwide from 2016 to 2024 “what prompted them to replace their mobile phone.” The most common answer was “battery deterioration (no longer lasts long)” at 48.5% (2024). Nearly half of respondents decided to replace their battery when it reached the end of its life. Combined with the 15.0% (in 2024) who continued to use their product until it broke, it was found that more than 60% of people use their product for a long time until physical defects occur.

If the battery was replaceable, its lifespan would be extended.

In other words, performance is ignored, it’s fine as long as it works, and getting used to it takes precedence over high specs.

The battery pack on a flip phone was replaceable.

Battery standards are yet to be standardized.

I’ve known about this for 10 years, so I change the batteries myself. My iPhone 6 is still in use as a car music player.

I use it to shoot videos instead of an action camera
The battery on the 6 is easy to change.

The battery performance is good, but it wouldn’t charge, so I switched from Arrow to Xperia after a year.
9Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:46:19.65ID:oEnDYHG10
It should have nuclear batteries.

Even if I buy an expensive smartphone, the battery breaks after 3 years, so now I only buy cheap ones. Smartphones are consumables.
12Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:48:32.38ID:896wide80
Well, I guess so.
13Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:49:03.34ID:f+K9Zha00
I thought that battery deterioration was only a problem with flip phones.
14Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:49:15.76ID:m78uskA40
With an iPhone, you can have the battery replaced at a local repair shop for less than 10,000 yen, which is great.
24Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:51:19.02ID:f+K9Zha00

I’d be happy with 10,000 yen lol.

Replace with a used battery lol.

Japan is unique in that the lower the income, the higher the iPhone usage rate. Why do poor people use iPhones?

Because iPhone is more cost-effective
There are too many Android models and parts cannot be standardized
So even if it breaks, the repair costs are high
iPhone has a wide range of third-party battery replacements
and if it’s genuine, you can replace it almost forever.

Because iPhones have a long support period, you don’t have to replace them as often.
Also, compared to Android, the CPU is stronger, so you can use it smoothly even if it’s an older model.
Until recently, Android only had a support period of 2-3 years, so if you didn’t have the financial means to replace it frequently, you couldn’t keep it up to date, so iPhones were perfect for poor people.

That’s probably the result of brainwashing people when they were giving it away for free.
16Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:50:05.40ID:RHqjJF2U0
I don’t mind it being less waterproof, but I’d like the battery to be removable and for replacement batteries to be available at low cost. Even with a portable battery, it’s a pain.
18Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:50:16.29ID:nrcTNfWe0
If you’re worried about degradation, just buy a vivo. It uses semi-solid batteries so it lasts a long time.
19Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:50:21.75ID:B1W+44W30
People who have no problems with the batteries in their TVs, refrigerators, or air conditioners probably wouldn’t think about replacing them unless they break.
20“” Guard [lv.1] [Sprout].Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:50:25.18ID:84cpKuAq0
Well, if you return it, it’ll cost just 1 yen.
21Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:50:38.15ID:7PS/bEnr0
I don’t have much money so I’ll probably keep using it for 5 to 6 years, but if I could replace the battery I’d probably use it until it broke.
22Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:50:38.33ID:IcRV6lhC0
They should focus on improving battery performance rather than improving camera performance.

If you buy an iPhone, you won’t have to worry about battery deterioration lol.

I’ve never had a problem with the battery as long as it can be charged.
Personally, when I buy a new phone, it depends on whether I can stop updating the main apps.
I have two other phones, so I keep the old and new versions so that there is a difference.
Like android 8 and 13.

I don’t mind it being less waterproof, but please return it so I can replace the battery.
35Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:57:37.56ID:U60uHeFZ0
I’ve never heard of anyone replacing the battery in a Mud. Has anyone done it? I thought that people who own Mud would replace the battery with a new one? With an iPhone, you can extend the life of your phone by replacing the battery, and if you sell it, it will fetch a high price (although it’s genuine).

I think they’re replacing the battery as part of the carrier’s insurance, and even if the battery wears out, they’ll replace it with an equivalent model.

There’s no need for it
New models come out every year and you can transfer the contents exactly
There’s no point in replacing the battery on your smartphone

I had to take it apart because the screen was cracked, but it’s easier to just buy a new one if you buy it online. The separation tool won’t slip between your nails and your fingers.

I replaced it once because it had an sd845.
It’s still usable, but it’s over 5 years old and outdated, so I didn’t replace it a second time and bought a new one.
36Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:57:46.76ID:watDXxyt0
It’s unnecessary communication like quick share, so the battery runs out quickly.
37Security Guard [lv.3] [Sprout].Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 09:58:02.28ID:j5/57oTJ0
You can change the battery on your flip phone yourself, but I used to carry a spare battery and change it quickly.

It’s hard to choose my next smartphone model, so the iPhone is easy in that sense.

It would be solved if I had to buy new batteries or a new console.

My friend who still uses the iPhone 11 always carries his mobile phone with him. He looks poor.

The EU is starting to regulate things like making it easier to change batteries, so I’m looking forward to that trend.

I’ve changed the 6s battery three times.
53Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 10:06:19.68ID:RHqjJF2U0
The product won’t be on the market for another 3 years or so, and the current batteries won’t last until then.
66Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 10:08:50.07ID:2Q8WmTGb0
Why do you need to replace the whole device when you can just replace the battery and use it for another few years?
73Anonymous Donburako.Nov. 16, 2024 (Sat) 10:09:27.22ID:H6cnS6s90
Charging to 100% causes deterioration faster, so if you stop charging at 80% each time, the lifespan will be doubled.
