Because of my financial discipline, I need my MT to last 4 years, is this reasonable?
This is my first Android and I'm liking my MT more everyday. Living in a big city I have no GPS issues, everything is better than expected even after reading other's MT problems. I got mine 'like new' thru ebay, good price with extras.
Having said that, I can't switch phones every year or even two, it makes no financial sense. I don't know how some move from OV to MT in a few months. Amortized... smartphones ain't cheap
So for the experienced Smartphone users or Android gurus... Do you think asking my MT to last 4 years is realistic? I plan to physically baby the phone, functionally I use it as a phone (avg 300min/month) and web duties, followed by camera and nav, I rarely play games. I don't plan on rooting. FYI my last phone was the Kyocera Slider, gave me 8+ years of faithful service, I'm on my 5th battery and still going strong, this is my back-up
