OnePlus 5, that I bought in September 2017, still works like a charm.

My Samsung Galaxy S6 is getting a little long in the tooth. Released in 2015. It no longer supports a couple of my apps so I will need to upgrade at some point but other than that it fits my needs.

My issue is not newness but size. And all the newer iPhones are getting bigger.

I still have a 12 mini and the last mini they are supposedly making is the 13 mini I guess, and both are 5.4 inch.

The newest SE is 4.7 so maybe that's the newer option.

Love the little tray under the phone for notepaper, to write down messages.

One would think that would be fairly obvious, at this juncture.

But we love you anyway.

Drop it at your nearest Samsung service. It'll be like new in an hour for $50. Good to go for 3+ more years

Repairing mine vs buying a NOS example would now be exactly the same amount. So I decided to move on and stick to the S10+ eventually. I still miss the S9 though.
