Still my daily driver pushing eight years now. Original battery at 66% still gets about 3 hours of SOT. Fingerprint sensor still faster than a lot of newer in-screen ones.

My very first Samsung phone, which I had during my college days, unfortunately got stolen.
Google Maps recently reminded me of an older photo I had taken with this phone on January 9, 2018.

I have had this phone for 6 years! It still charges really quickly. It works well. I'm just running out of storage now though. It's the best phone I've had.

This is my current backup phone, works perfectly with the original battery in great condition.
My A54 main board failed 3 days after warranty end and Samsung refused to fix it.

Good phone overall. Been using it since 2017 - 2024, still no issues so far. Several times dropped from hand however strong enough. All these years i spent only to change the screen once. Keeping as a backup phone for radio and calls.

I kept this phone for 4 years before getting a Google Pixel 7 Pro, and while I appreciated the phone, I could never imagine myself using it for 6 years, and I don't think it would realistically last that long either. Did he swap out the battery for a new one?
