What's the lifespan of a Motorola smartphone?
Lifespan of any electronic device is based on your usage and maintainace.Almost every electronic device specially mobiles can last upto 10 years but their optimum life is about 4–5 years. After that most probably their battery will die amd they require constant maintenance. Moreover, after this span your device start costing you funds in small investment, therefore everyone prefer to buy new device with new technology.I bought moto g around 4 years ago, and i still have it but again it have many issues. Consequently, i preferred to buy a new one because cost of maintenace is very high.
What is the smartphone with the longest lifespan?
Go look for mid size screen size, detachable battery, USB charging, cheap screen replacements. Androids are cheaper, have more choice and support.Apple has better accessories, but abandons three years old devices.With no shocks, dust or moisture damage a phone should last about ten years. An IP68 phone can prevent dust and moisture damage, but will be still vulnerable to shocks of falls.Even airtight phones collect small dust inside, if you work on environment with powders, it may be worth to clean inside once in a year.Phones that tolerate better falls are phones with thicker profiles, smaller screen and less mass.Typically cheaper phones have smaller screen and battery, and that helps reducing the chance of breaking the screen on a fall. Rounded corners help having a bigger impact area to spread impact force.If you want to lower the cost of phone per year, you can buy refurbished phones for a fraction of their original cost, or import directly from China(get some experience first to have better deals).Learning how to repair phones also helps in case it would break by a shock.Old phones will inevitably get outdated as they won't support latest OS, apps, features or else. To maintain reasonably the pace of technology is not necessary to change phone every year as changes are marginal. A three year cycle is better, and you can still use old working phones in case of emergency or as smarter appliances as surveillance cameras or cloud storage servers.
Will an Android phone last longer than iOS?
Is this opposite day?iPhones tend to last between 4–6 years. It’s 2017 and I know people who are still using their iPhone 4 which was released in 2010. Apple offers OS updates to iPhones for four generations. That’s 4 years after the launch. Some features aren’t available because of required hardware support, but the security updates and most of the other features are. What’s more, the phone doesn’t cease to function. Not getting a new feature is not “obsoleting” a phone. For comparison, take a look at the top Android phones of 2010 and tell me how often you see them in the wild: Leaderboard: The 12 best Android smartphones of 2010. If you think that the updates make the older phones harder to use, simply don’t update.Now if you get an Android phone, the minute you walk out of the store with it the company that manages updates, the carrier, has lost all incentive to push out updates to you. Their interest is purely in getting your monthly bill and getting you to buy a new phone as soon as possible. As a result, most Android phones don’t get updates even months after their release. There are Android phones that are released in 2016 that won’t get the version of Android that was released in 2016. The ones that do will get it months and sometimes years later.Android and iOS fill different niches in the smartphone world and neither one is objectively superior. There are plenty of good reasons to switch from iOS to Android, but the one you bring up is not one of them. This is like complaining about the air quality in Montana and moving to Beijing.
How long are Samsung's smartphones' lifespans? Specifically, how long is it until it starts to have problems?
If you get a flagship phone, the hardware will most likely last for 3 to 4 years. The battery will need to be replaced within 1.5 years. Peripherals that usually die around 3 years are the charging port and headphone jack. The OS will be updated to new Android versions for 2 years, and additional security patches will be pushed out for another year (3 years software support total technically). The build quality on flagships Samsung Note 4 and before are far more durable, being made of high quality polycarbonate and having removable batteries and modular parts. Samsung S6 and onwards are made out of glass and are super fragile and hard to repair.I myself use a flagship Samsung Galaxy Note 3 since early 2014, its still fine in June 2017 after almost 3 1/2 years usage, except the charging port is getting a little loose and may need to be replaced soon. And I also bought another battery from Amazon in 2015.If you get a midrange or entry-level phone, the build quality, especially on phones before 2015, will be pretty bad. Should last about 2 years before something dies. The new 2016 and 2017 A-series and C-series are pretty good and should also last about 3 years, although the battery will need to be replaced after 2 years.
What is the average life of a Motorola Mobile Phone?

What is the average lifetime of a smartphone?
Phones this days become obsolete faster than going bad of a manufacture issue or just by plain wear and tear.A mayor example of this is memory size: A 2 year old phone is perfectly fine, that is if you can handle the now visible and annoying lag that you will face as you try to run the latest versions of some of your applications, that is if they work at all. By this time you probably have less than 20% left on your internal memory and you are basically unable to download anything else unless you pop in a good SD card. (Sorry iOS, you are screwed)The other issue is the battery, on most phones of the new generation you start to see a big drop at the 3 year mark and by the fourth year your charger is your best friend. This makes me long for my 2006 feature phone that I had to charge every 5 or 6 days
Which manufacturer produces smartphones that maintain their quality the best throughout your years of use?
Smartphones are essentially computers, and they are evolving so quickly currently that regardless of brand, they are going to eventually become slow as they are. Let’s start by saying if you never update the OS and if you never install new apps, your phone will retain the same “new” feeling forever, at least in terms of responsiveness. Batteries have a limited number of charges, and their life is constantly falling, so if you charge your phone on a regular bases, the battery will eventually get shorter and shorter. This is a limit of current battery technology. So basically if you never upgrade the OS or download new apps, the only quality your phone will lose will be battery and, possibly, physical quality (if you drop it or scratch it or whatever).If you upgrade the OS, then your phone—be it iOS, windows, or Android—will get slower. These small computers still don’t have a lot of horsepower under the hood, so when you upgrade you are asking them to do a lot more work, work that they can’t handle as well. Thus they become slower. Generally you might get one, possibly two, upgrades before the slowness becomes noticeable to the point of annoyance. Also if you regularly download apps, your phone will probably get slower. There are exceptions, but generally apps want the latest hardware. Many are designed on the latest hardware. This is especially true of games. When you run these apps they demand a lot for your phone and slow it down. This is not a conspiracy from any of the companies, it is just how the technology works. In a few years smartphones will gain enough power that you can get more than a few years, but at present you can’t. All of the manufactures suffer from this.So there’s your answer. Never update your OS and never download apps (i.e. use your phone as a phone only) and it will retain that new, responsive feeling forever, or until the battery dies. But use your phone as a computer, update the OS when you can, download the latest apps, and you will get a year or two before it starts to feel so slow that you are frustrated enough to upgrade.
