Finally upgraded my phone - no, that doesn't mean a new one. No need to spend hundreds just for some extra storage, or to give up my data to some dodgy cloud where I have no control over it

Honestly, if we could upgrade the RAM in phones, I'd probably be fine with this one for a decade. (Or until they start making phones with qwerty keypads again.)

Congrats! And holy shit, having a way of upgrading RAM in a phone is something that never crossed my mind! This would extend life of phones by so much.
There's no reason why at least the motherboard couldn't be a replaceable module if one is happy with cameras and display, or the other way around. Not saying it has to be super simple like plugging in a Lego module, but it's definitely doable. Most peripherals are borderline off the shelf anyway and their functionality and support is mostly in software.
We need a company for phones that's like framework for laptops.
A fewhavextried but sadly failed. If they just made the phones less difficult to modify people could still at least have local technicians change components
