I currently have a iphone 6, and it hasn't aged gracefully. The batterylife is the span of a fruitfly and its slow and sluggish. Every time there is a new ios update I need to chose to install it or not. Not installing it means some apps not working, and constant annoying reminders, installing it means even slower phone (atleast for a while).
Sometimes it dies on me, and refuse to come back to life without a few hours charging and then some phone voodo. First time that happened was about 30 min before I was going on a 4-5 hour long flight, with all my music on the phone.
I've been putting off the upgrade since I don't want to spend the money, and I think something that expensive should last me longer than this. I'd also prefer to avoid the activity of shopping for a phone, would rather visit the dentist.
Now one of my charger cables died, and since the other one is moody I guess it's time to decide. Buy a (or two) new cables, maybe a new battery, and try to keep this one as long as possible? Or would it be better to just suck it up and buy a new phone?
How old is your (i)phone, and have you done anything to extend it's life?
