For those considering getting this phone for sustainability reasons, just a reminder that the most sustainable option is to keep the phone you have until there's something actually wrong with it
Thx you !
And this apply to everything you want to replace for sustainability reason.
The most sustainable stuff, is the stuff you don't buy :)
I mean, as long as I chose to return/donate/hand-down/upcycle my current phone (whatever prevents it from going to a landfill) shouldnt it be fine?
If you have a plan for your current phone, then yea it's not much different. I think you're touching on the larger point at hand, because individuals have a miniscule fraction of a percent when it comes to things like e-waste. The overproduction of electronics is a much larger portion of e-waste
