They will last as long as my contract allows me to get a free upgrade.

SL55 lasted 3 months only before upgrade it was too small, so network provider changed it for T610, I changed T610 to P900 after 9 months. Gave my mate T610 and it's still going strong.

If i had to pay for these phones sim free i would still be on j5

@bobafett - Yup! Accessories' availability in the market also counts! The bad news with the present trend is that dealers tend only to sell parts which have a big sale turnout, /saleable ones, mostly, they are that of the recent/current models. I manage to see some batt's (original) being sold more expensive compared to that of the latest fone model's acc's . . . quite an irony?

I think the life span is as the warranty says, 1 year.After that, it may die on u ar the spare-parts cost a lot so better get a new one.This is merchandise movement on the market... gotta play along

i think that, like everything else, they don't build them like they used to. many older cellphones are still going strong as long as you can maintain a good battery, while newer ones seem less robust.

I agree with the previous comments cellphones will generally go on forever if you treat them right - however mine lasts as long as the latest newest gadget appears on the market and untill i can get a free upgrade to it - bar far the best way

Why keep using old technology when you don't have to
