This phone won’t ever die. I wish still held onto the model I had with me.

I still have mine but the charging port is broken. I had to charge two different batteries and swap them out to use it.

But the battery will. Just a couple minutes ago I had a battery of a phone become a spicy pillow in front of me, within just a couple seconds. I'm convinced it'd have blown up just a few seconds later.

Please be very careful.
