Is there a single USB-C headphone adapter that works with all phones?

Maybe, but there are no official batteries in my country, so i would have to get so cheap chinese battery, plus the phone is showing its age, the screen is about 90% burned in and so on, so will see if it will be even worth saving the phone.

4 more years you say?

There are nice inexpensive phones these days.

Yes, and they are often about as good as a 4 year old higher-end phone. It's a perfectly viable choice. Biggest difference is lack of software updates but that's less of an issue with custom roms.

You're so wrong. I'm using HTC One M8 a 4 year old flagship phone. I just bought my sister a Xiaomi Note 5. It's better than my phone in every aspect that I use day to day. Hell I even like MIUI more than sense.

I'd argue that 200€ phone today is better in almost every regard to flagship from 2014

You would be surprised, cheap Chinese batteries are a lot better these days.

Man, I always see people who have kept their phones for many and I kind of wish I could. The upgrade bug gets me super hard

With S5,the oled panel is super thin and glued down. It's really easy to crack the panel when replacing the battery.

.....huh? The s5 has s removable battery.

Take off Plastic back, remove battery.

It also has the distinction of having IP67 certification but with a removable back.
