I'm 4 years into my current phone. I plan to use it until it dies, since there's no point anymore in upgrading.

That was my plan. I still end up buying a new one every 2 years cause it keeps breaking lol.

Perhaps it's teaching you that you may need to be more careful with your phone.

Things that are out of your control happen sometimes.

My OnePlus Nord N10 randomly bootlooped and I had to wipe a certain partition to get it working again, losing all app data.

The Lenovo K8 Note I had apparently got too hot and unsoldered a certain chip. Has happened to other phone owners based on my research.

The Moto X Style I had used shitty displays that kept developing ghost touches.

Fair point.
