    I just replaced the battery on my pixel 7 and I’m asking myself the same. I use my phone for fewer tasks than you. Calls and messages only.

      Nobody should feel a strong need to upgrade after only two generations. Same deal with most tech like GPUs and CPUs.

      I use my phone a lot and my Pixel 7 is fine. The primary factors driving my last couple upgrades were battery degradation and software support. Neither should be a big problem with a Fairphone.

      I’m also trying to decide whether to stick with the Pixel/GrapheneOS ecosystem or go for Fairphone.

      How hard/expensive was it to replace your battery? I looked on iFixIt and it seemed a lot harder than my orevious phones.

        I’m currently in a part of the world where labor is pretty cheap so it didn’t cost me much.
