The iPhone 6s has been used for 8 years now, so can the iPhone 15 be used until 2031?

The iPhone 6s is a mobile phone released by Apple in September 2015, and it has been 8 years since it was used.

Frankly speaking, according to this use cycle, Apple phones are indeed durable enough, and the fact is that current users of the iPhone 6s do have, and quite a few.

Users of the iPhone 6s keep their phones "in service" like this: the battery life decreases, they go to replace the battery, and then use it.

Coincidentally, a report published by research firm CCS Insight said that by the end of 2023, there will be 1.3 billion iPhones in use, more than half of which will be second-hand models.

In addition, the report shows that from 2024, the average iPhone lifespan will reach 8 years. If you count from September 2015, it has been 8 years since the release of the iPhone 6s, assuming that users started in October of that year, and now it has been 8 years.

To be honest, the iPhone 6s is still being used today, it should be regarded as a relatively durable Apple phone, right? In the background, I actually saw a message from a classmate saying that his iPhone 5s was still "in service".

Objectively speaking, I really admire users with such determination, but I am also impressed by the durability of Apple's iPhone.

In fact, if you carefully think about the iPhone, their hardware configuration is not a big problem in meeting the daily needs of ordinary users, nothing more than the decline in battery health will affect the peak performance output of the iPhone to a certain extent, so there is the replacement battery mentioned above.

If according to the report of the research company and the actual service life of the iPhone 6s, won't the iPhone 15 released in September 2023 be used until 2031?

It is no exaggeration to say that if the performance configuration of the iPhone 15 is concerned, I personally feel that there should be nothing to worry about in terms of maximizing the daily needs of some consumers.

After all, there will be iPhone6s in 2023, and iPhone15 is much stronger than iPhone6s. Apple A16 Bionic chip + 6GB running memory + 48 million pixels main lens, while the iPhone 15 screen size is also larger than the iPhone 6s, reaching 6.1 inches.

Then, in the case of the phone's strong enough, all that remains is the support of the iOS system and the performance of the battery to play. Obviously, in a predictable period of time, I think the iOS system can update support the iPhone 15 for three or five years.

And the battery because of the perfect after-sales service, frankly as long as there is a new battery adapted to the iPhone 15, users who hold this phone do not have to worry about not being able to replace the new battery, right.

Of course, I think the only reason why iPhone 15 users can't stick with it is subjective. If users can use the same Apple phone in 8 years, at least step past the "hurdle" in their hearts.

On the one hand, Apple will definitely release a number of new machines in this process, and will iPhone 15 users be able to resist the temptation in three or five years? On the other hand, the iPhone 15 will definitely not have any major problems now and in the next two years, and the smoothness is okay.

Five years later, you can't guarantee what kind of unexpected situation will happen to the iPhone 15, and bumping it will affect the mood. At that time, it is the key to testing whether the user can continue to use it.

Written at the end, the iPhone6s mobile phone can be used until 2023, up to 8 years, in fact, it has little to do with the performance output of this mobile phone, it lies in the user's mentality.

The same logic, the current smartphone iteration speed is very fast, iPhone 15 will be eliminated by the subsequent Apple new machine, so users can really stick to 8 years?
