Some people use phones for just some months, while some use phones for years. All things being equal, disregarding if your phone was stolen or misplaced. How long do you use mobile phones. For mine have been using my phone since July 2018, and I have no plans of changing it anytime soon, and on the average I use phones for at least 18 months. How long does phones last with you generally?

As long as it's not stolen. Why are you thinking of it... Is there nothing better to think of?

16 months and counting.

The way things are going,I will still be using it till the end of the year..

But then..

I've not seen anything better,for the price am willing to pay..

Depends on if the device got a solid build and decent/flagship specs recognized all over the world, not the ones recognized by some of our brothers and sisters (you know yourselves)

it all depends on affordability, maintenance and durability. some people change phones in months, but if your device is durable you can use it for upto 1 or 2 years too, i have been using my camon device for quite a while

2 flagships later

It depends on the quality of the device, If it is Nokia or Samsung which I buy costly. Like my Nokia 6.1 plus which bought 70k last November, am using it till 2021. The specs are ok.

Nice question!
all things being equal, using a good flagship phone like samsung 'S' series etc for 2yrs aint bad.
its ok

So long as the OS is not more than three years old.

our "CHEAP AND AFFORDABLE" brothers and sisters AKA


thou knowest thyself

All my phones are not up to a year.. is either stolen or d phone died itself . I wanna buy a brand new phone that is not more than 65k but I still don't know which one can last longer

As long as possible so far you don't get tired of it or misplace it..
I've had mine since I can't remember, still very sound and gallant.

I think my phone is older than Nigeria and it's still sound and beautiful. It's my best friends and my pet.

I feel a year and half is ok

Lols,i have been using my nokia 112 since 2012.never had an android to call mine yet sha.

As long as you want, its your choice.

Mine will clocks 3 years next week and I don't even think of changing the phone... Not a phone freak though

I change phone every 6months max, now gotten Xiaomi phone and it's 9month already.

The reason I change it like that is I don't like my phone to get fault at all. And I sold it almost same price I bought it.

I have actually plan to sell this but the offer is not attractive and money is not coming in cos of this lockdown.

I'll surely get new one after the lockdown

Mine is 7 years old. Not a single issue since I bought it. Battery still last long. Huawei is bae

Most iPhone users hardly think of getting a replacement except for show off or show biz. That device is strong and replacement part is cheap.

I can remember my iPhone 8 falling through the window in a fast speeding car on lekki ajah express way, in fact the phone flew not dropped, my people that phone is still solid, never repaired it, only had an hair line crack on screen and edges scratch. Just change battery if you wish after some years, that’s all. I think wizkid is still using his iPhone 6 even if he has others.

A brand new iPhone or a good uk or us used iphone will last you years without issues, And will have a strong second hand value in the market when you want to upgrade.

I was a big Samsung galaxy s series fan tho, from s6 to s8+ but you see ehn, if ur Samsung screen should have fault, that phone is gone. You can buy a brand new s10 for 260k today and sell 90k tomorrow if the screen should crack
Was Really impressed by iPhone after the switch

4 years don't ask me why

currently using the xsmax,mine is 9months already i plan to change it wen the iphone12 comes out
