>>2684482Actually the battery on this one is fine, and I always have two battery backups anyways
>phone breaksnever had that happen, I dropped one in water and that broke it but that was years and years ago and they have been waterproofed since
it has gps, it can summon SOS through satellites, it has everything you need
>a new costsmost people have phone plans that include upgrades, they tend to subsidize it heavily for people on monthly plans
doesn't need to be new anyways, 14 and newer can do satellite SOS, but sometimes 14 isn't even cheaper than 15 because of ??
And I just don't know about android devices and satellite access, but if that's a thing that's fine too if you don't want Apple.
But these subscriptions tend to be $250+ a year for satellite communication if you want it on demand, like hey, if you've got money to blow, ok, but don't pretend that's necessary or more practical than a smartphone which most people already have
