    That should be doable of you’ve got a recent model.

    This phone is an S23 bought earlier this year. With care and poss a new battery fitted by Samsung or in a shop, it should do that.

    My last phone had to have a new screen, fitted by Samsung mobile unit. They replaced the battery as part of the process.

    We never needed phones as thin and light as possible that we can use in a shower or the pool.

    They became fashion items rather than tools.

      I wonder if I can get my Pixel 3 to last that long. I need a battery replacement but it also needs to be waterproof as my motorcycle GPS.

      I have an S21 and even I think I should be able to last that long as long as I get an official battery replacement done in a year or two. I’ve had it 2 1/2 years and still haven’t really noticed any degredation in battery performance. Wondering if todays batteries hold up better than the older models. My S7 battery became unusable after a couple of years.
