Even the Galaxy S5 & Note 4 still have plenty of app support for its age (the phone itself & the OS age). Considering that phone are now 1 decade old. But with 2GB of RAM, the performance on the Galaxy S5 is slow

Better buy second hand units of Samsung brand period. Do not buy brand new for it hurts your piggy, take it from me for I bought a brand new one for almost 100k and now Its market value down to 35k. Now you buy a brand new z fold 5 and just now the news come out for the coming of z fold 6 , 😱😭 really Samsung? Think twice and be wise.

It's not wrong to say that nothing has improved since 2017, even if there are price hikes

Galaxy S9 doesnt have the software nor hardwar to keep using in 2024.
Its SoC is old and bad(Exynos),it only has 4gb of ram and its battery even new is not great due to small capacity and high res screen.
Its also stuck on Android 10.....
This is the exact opposite compared to a current flagship like S24Ultra.

Of course, not all phones, the average consumer will get lost in so many tech details about a component or another. But at least 1-2 models from each manufacturer each year could have this possibility (of changing the battery, or cameras, or display if necessary, without going to services).

i doubt that a battery can last 7 years ... samsung (and any other manufacturers) always drop automatically the hardware production after 1 year !
