They complain so much about CPU performance, comparing every Snapdragon chip to the Apple A17 bla bla bla. In the real world, who uses these much power in a chip anyway? Heck, even midrange chips nowadays are very much capable.

    Well built phones can easily last 5+ years. I’ve been using my OP5T for 6 years now. It was my main for 5+ years. It is not slow by any means, even now. In fact, for most normal users, it would still seem fast enough for daily use. Camera and battery would be the only issues. Similarly, if the battery of P8P lasts (or swap it out) and if they release proper software updates that don’t slow down the device, it can absolutely last 7 years. It might become a second phone for them, or their kids can use it.
