My old galaxy s7 was getting about a half day on light use by the end. About 1 hour with heavy use. Don’t remember how long I had it, but I’m guessing about 4 years.
The USB port wore out too and wasn’t repairable individually. Repair would cost more than the phone was worth at that point.
Battery replacement and repairable design is a very important matter. Moores law doesn’t hold true anymore, and devices can stay relevant for a long time if manufacturers don’t force obsolescence
The amount of ewaste created because of perfectly fixable things like that is staggering. It’s akin to trashing your car because the tyres are getting old.
