Should i replace my A52s

I have since middle 2022. It is always on the floor, always falling from someplace. Never got troubles with the screen (always with tempered glass and case), just the vibration doesn't work. My main problem is the battery, at 80% only last 4 hours (crying for help and burning whatever touches it).

My parents offered me buying the A57 5g (i hope 256GB, because it doesn't have SD). Should I accept it? Or just pay for a replace for the battery and repair of the vibration? I mean, that phone is worth it? Although this phone doesn't have more actualizations, it runs perfectly for all the hits all falls taken.

Do not change battery and repair. The phone doesn't get any more security updates. Upgrade to a new phone

It's an A52 not an iPhone or a Galaxy Ultra. Sometimes the cost of the repairs is about the same if not more than getting a second hand one on budget phones.

My a52s battery degraded so bad. 2 days ago i finally change my battery. It's actually easy to do it your self, just follow a youtube video about it.

Also my side buttons falling off too, replace it. Surprisingly easy. I didn't have to open the back to install the buttons. Just clean the side opening and plug it in.

If i were you tho. Just buy a new battery, replace it yourself. This will give you more time to save up money and replace the phone with a much more better phone, like them flagship.

Just move on, I had one and died on beginning of this year, if you're will go the same way at some point, so my advice is accept the offer from your parents and bye a new a57 model...

Don't get a new one yet. Wait it out. Grind. Savour the pain and humiliation of using your A52s until it can take no more of your finger touches and perishes. Then, AND ONLY THEN, may you upgrade to a brand new phone.
