How often do you replace electronic and other appliances and devices with new ones?

For me it depends.

My phone is a sonim xp8 new in 2018. Can't afford to upgrade to the xp10. I don't get phones on a contract or lease only buy outright.

My computer is a Panasonic toughbook cf31 that's probably the same age as the phone. Current one bought used last yr as old one got broken.

My digital camera is an Olympus d595 over 10 years old. Still works.

My home appliances are similar. Fridge is 8 yrs old.

Bought new tv last yr to replace 16 yr old plasma unit tv and should be good for next 10 yrs at least.

My vehicles are all used and newest two date from 1992.

Only when they break and aren't fixable or became incompatible with me or other devices/software.

I had to buy a vertical mouse two years ago because my hand got bad.

My smartphone from 2018 got suddenly extremely slow so I replaced it in 2022.

However I keep my Koss porta pro for many years and they have been repaired uncountable times. I'm thinking of getting a new pair.
