For sure any update would be very worth the price. If you have to pay $80 for the battery you might look for a used pixel 5 for ~$180 ? Huge upgrade for sure
That's an interesting idea. I've been reluctant to get a new phone because of the heavy resource use, but getting a "less old" Pixel isn't really pulling from supply chains in any way. Thanks for the thought.
As a nerd with an kind of ecological consciousness that's how I try to deal with this. It's not the ideal situation but I try to always find a use for the old phone - new owner like a kid, or back to second hand market
