Editor’s Note: Sign up for CNN’s Life, But Greener newsletter. Our seven-part guide helps you minimize your personal role in the climate crisis and reduce your eco-anxiety. Do you really need a new phone, or do you simply have the urge to get the new, shiny tech? There are some issues to consider besides the new device’s affordability. In particular, our desire to always have the newest smartphone comes at a steep environmental cost.
Right-to-repair advocates have been calling for laws to require device makers to release the tools, parts and repair manuals necessary to allow consumers to have their products fixed by independent shops, or to do it themselves. If consumers could more easily repair devices, advocates say they wouldn’t have to replace them as frequently, which reduces reliance on the resource-intensive and greenhouse gas-emitting production process and ultimately cuts down on electronic waste.
Tell us about how Government was telling Twitter & big tech what to do and who to ban.
Nah. I never bothered getting one to begin with. They're a waste of money.
I've had my phone for 4 years now. I want to upgrade, but don't really know why. It still handles what I need it for fine. I guess I'll just get a dslr and not worry about the camera aspect. Galaxy note 9 is what I have btw.
One lasted me 3+ years just fine and another barely over a year. It all depends. 🤷♂️
I chose years ago to avoid switching every 2 years. It seemed like a waste of money. I imagine that switching phones is more like switching cars every 2 years. Then you're always making payments. Heck No! No longer financially feasible.

Somehow, I've managed to spend nearly sixty-three years on this planet without a smartphone... my landline suits me just fine, Danke Schön...
The terrorist regime of Islamic Republic executed another protestor MajidrezaRahnavard . They called his family at 7AM informed them about his execution and that they buried him, then told them where they can find his grave. It's sucuch a butcherly crime. MahsaAmini
Mizan news agency announced the execution مجیدرضا_رهنورد in public in Mashhad.
Take a beat?
Another - dishwashers lasted 20 yrs previously. Now are expected to last 7-9 years. In fact by law companies need to make parts for only 7 years from manufacture. Biggest frauds are the laws & these companies,they post energy ratings, climate pledges court PR & - do the opposite
Not until they lower the price that they charge illegal immigrants.
I get a new one about wvery 5 years and that one is usually 2 phones lesss than the newest one on the market
Of course not! You don’t need to replace your smartphone every 2 years.
I have slowed down on that practice.

Her name is ArmitaAbbasi. She's only 19. She was kidnapped by IRGC thugs, and they raped her so many times that she was brought to a hospital only to be kidnapped again. Please be her voice!! MahsaAmini
Do people waste their money on new phones every year in an attempt to be cooler than the person who hasn't bought a new phone for two plus years?
3 years is what I say
No need at all unless you want to show off or impress others with new phone..and that also by telling them that its a new phone as noone is able to tell any difference between new and old
MohammadHosseini’s parents are dead and he has no family, no lawyer and no one to follow him and know about his situation. The news heard about him shows that he is in danger of execution. IranRevolution
Yes, the battery doesn't last that long. End of argument.
Take a “beat”, like listening to a song?, and think it over ? I’m confused 🫤
I get a new one atleast, every 4.5 yrs.. Samsung galaxy NOTE phones here.
MahanSadrat The complainant has officially withdrawn his complaint saying doesn't ask for compensation for his damaged motorcycle but the Judge is looking for a neck for execution. Repeating Mohsen Shekari tragedy to Mahan Sedarat in coming days.... MahsaAmini
