5 years is too short, it means we need to buy at very least 10 brand new phones from 15yo to 60yo (oldies also need security updated right ?). We need a pocket device that do clock, agenda, media player, camera, web browser and obviously phone. Apps are great but can be replaced with on/offline sites. We’re going in a direction that sacrifice users and resources sustainability in favor of the economy.
I’m not against economy but it should be a tool to empower humanity, not the opposite.
