Hi all,

I’ve had a 3a for some years now, and I like almost everything about the phone (though I sincerely wish they’d used more durable glass, holy canoli). However, the battery has started to fail, and I was wondering if it’s worth replacing? It would cost about 80 USD to have it professionally replaced.

I know the device is no longer supported by Google, but I was thinking of running GrapheneOS instead of Android, anyway.

Any thoughts or insights? I’m far from a genius when it comes to cell phones, so I’d appreciate anything you have to say.

Thanks!

    As a nerd with an kind of ecological consciousness that’s how I try to deal with this. It’s not the ideal situation but I try to always find a use for the old phone - new owner like a kid, or back to second hand market
