I'm averaging about two years right now. My two previous phones were the Moto E4 Plus; didn't have any problems with the first one, but I broke the screen and had it replaced with an identical refurbished phone. That one started having issues with freezing and crashing a few months ago, and it just wasn't able to run a couple of apps I use all the time very well anymore. Now I have the Moto G Stylus and hopefully that will last at least as long as the others did.
You might try backing up your files and photos and doing a system reset. Sometimes that will fix issues like you're having with yours for a while. Maybe that'll help it last until you're able to upgrade it.

In 2019, when I was here in New Zealand, my Samsung S8 gave up and it was still 2 months before I fully finished paying my installment on it to Smart. I was then forced to buy an iPhone 11 Pro. My previous Samsung phone lasted 4 or 5 years. My S5 even reached over 6 years.

@lady1993 Yes I still had to pay. All my previous phones were free but I paid for that because I downgraded to a lower plan.

Never fond of cellphones and my android, a Samsung, had shown 'no storage' two years now. That is why I have no photos any longer.
Not thinking of buying a new one. I still have a landline and that's enough for me.

@lady1993 That was done twice. The shop did a check but just said bring it to Samsung. Sigh. Nope. Not wasting time.

It really depends. But I still have my iPhone 6s with me and it's already 7 years old

I think Samsung can last longer than any cellphone brand, of course the durability is below Nokia, but I believe if the settings are returned to the original, the memory capacity will be empty and become good again, maybe all you need is to reinstall the Samsung cellphone.

Now it's restarting on it's own and it's lagging.
I really do not have the budget for a new phone right now.
How long does your phone usually last?
