    I could have, or I could pay a couple of bucks a month for a new phone and not have to scrounge up $90.

      So it wasn’t planned obsolescence then. You just wanted to upgrade rather than replace the battery and keep the phone you say had no reason to upgrade.

        I wanted to do what I could afford. Maybe you can afford whatever you like, but I can’t.

          That’s fine, but a different argument than just saying planned obsolescence.
