Do you need it though? 3 years isn’t that long for a phone. 3 months ago I replaced my Samsung Galaxy S5 from 2014 for Fairphone 4, which I will keep to 2032+
I had android 13 on S5, I wont say it was smooth, but it was more than usable. I replaced it mostly because 2GB off RAM was starting to get on my nerves. I couldn’t have more than 2 apps open without it putting to sleep the previous one. Multitasking was not very good on such a old phone.
I cant imagine what could be wrong on 3 year old phone. If it is not broken just install LineageOS on it and you should be good to go.
I’m still on the Samsung Galaxy S20+ (2020) so I’m excited for the latest phone.
or you can wait 12 months for the S25 ?

It won’t get the latest Android OS update and it’s also starting to lag a bit

But is it so slow that you feel like it needs to be replaced?
