So if the battery life is like 80% it would make sense to not cause exponential battery health reduction by still running the device as it has 100% battery health. And changing the battery to a new one will get the device back to running like new (albeit other components also wear somewhat of course and may see maximum performance of say 95% of brand new)

Droid Terminator, 07 Aug 2024How can you use a phone for 7 years, after 2 years I feel l... moreJust because you get bored doesn't mean you have to upgrade it, we're genuinely getting phones that can last those 7 years without even slowing down... Of course they wouldn't if manufacturers didn't slow them down on purpose with updates and we were to actually take care of our phones but that's not the point I'm trying to make.
Some people may argue that phones haven't innovated for a long time and i kinda agree but at the same time if you buy a S24 Ultra or iPhone 15 Pro Max or any good flagship as a whole... Hell even the Z Flip 6, it's guaranteed that you'll be able to use it for a long time and it'll serve you well, the hardware used in phones these days is genuinely great and less and less people would actually have to upgrade every few years.... If it weren't for manufacturers with those purposeful updates! Damn it!

Sure, HMD has nothing to do with this, but if you're gonna call this overpriced, take a look at what you're defending first

Stunnar, 31 Jul 2024Poor battery,poor resolution poor selfie camera and yet ver... moreClearly you haven't used the previous generation of flips. My Flip 6 could easily last a day to a day and half of usage than my Flip 3. As for the selfie camera, you can either use the inner camera, and the outer cameras. Both take great pictures, both it's just common sense to use the outer cameras since the specs of the outer camera is better than the inner one.

Anonymous, 26 Jul 2024Will this phone physically last 7 years? Very few will.Samsung says it will. I don't see why it won't unless you drop it a lot. I have a Samsung Experience Shop near me that will change my battery out when it starts to degrade.

Droid Terminator, 07 Aug 2024How can you use a phone for 7 years, after 2 years I feel l... moreThat's you. I still have a Samsung Galaxy S5 in the house. I don't use it, but I have it. My CPU will work just fine for me. I never game on my phones. I have a laptop for that. I always use my phones with Battery Saver on, so my CPU is reduced anyway. I have a Samsung Experience store near me to change out the battery after about three years or so and I'll still be getting security updates. If I do get bored with the Flip 6 after a few years, I'll just buy something else and pass the Flip 6 on to a family member that wants it. No big deal. It's nice knowing I won't be FORCED to update after a few years as updates will be coming for a LONG time.

Simple example use the Flip 4 for 7 years since the time it was released and you will miss the advantage of the Flip 6. While they is only 2 years separating the Flip 4 and the Flip 6. You will be stack with the tiny screen on the Flip 4 while the Flip 6 offers bigger screen and better options. Yes you must wait for 7 years of update but for me 3 years is enough 'cause after 2 years I get a new device.

Thullraven, 23 Jul 2024The Razr has crappy updates. I have SEVEN years of updates ... moreHow can you use a phone for 7 years, after 2 years I feel like buying a new phone. What you guys forgot it is that latest CPU works better with latest Android update. After 7 years the CPU on the Flip 6 will not take full advantage of the 7 years android update and you will be so bored using the Flip 6 after 7 years. So the Motorola way of updating the device doesn't disturb me at all 3 years is enough because after 2 years I will buy a new phone with better CPU and latest android version.

The Razr 50 Ultra is 144 and can use any apps on the front screen and cost cheaper than the Flip 6

People paying up to and over £1000 for a phone just to ise it for social media and YouTube. Crazy. If you want absolute value, skip a flip phone. It's a gimmick. The outside screen is 60Hz for example and the actual screens themselves still have a relatively thick border around them. The phone is actually decent but compare it to the same price of phones that aren't flip and you'll get better quality. The extra screen and the fa t it flips, will all add to the cost obviously. Then markup because it's a gimmick phone. It still performs well, though. Just not my thing. Most phones have endless features that we don't use. People buying high end phones to just swipe on the Internet or social media. People often buy what they don't need. Don't make the same mistake. Or you'll regret it for the next 50 years. Unless you're already 100, then no doubt you'll be in regret because you bought an over priced Blackberry phone for MSN messenger. When most people just texted instead back then.

Anonymous, 26 Jul 2024Will this phone physically last 7 years? Very few will.The main problem is battery degradation after about 3 tears or so and the lack of security updates after three or four years. Both problems are solved for me with the Flip 6. It will be getting security updates for several years and like I said here previously, when the battery starts to go bad, I'll just go to the nearby Samsung Experience Shop and they will replace the battery and I'll still have years of security updates and a phone with a new battery.
