I get a new cell phone when my current one does not work properly and it is damaged to a condition that is kind of unfixable. Yes I did since my old phone got damaged from inside and stopped working. If I am addicted I have to stop using it slowly to an extend I am not addicted anymore.

I agree with your position. I've had an experience similar to yours, too. My laptop broke down after a couple of years although I was treating it well. Thanks to this experience, I started to inform myself about this kind of “premature rupture” that affects all electronic devices. I found some interesting information about a particular phenomenon which is named “planned obsolescence”. The industrial system markets objects specifically designed to have a short life this is because it causes the consumer to buy a new product. At the same time, companies are convincing us, through advertising, that the model we own is obsolete. This process is known as “perceived obsolescence”. Not only the cost of repairing these products is not convenient but also there would be an unnecessary waste. The European Parliament (youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toIFN8eR0ro) proposes a possible solution to solve this problem: sharing products that you don't need much or don't use often but need to have. In the video, a girl makes an example: the drill. This object is used a few t imes in a year, so why not share the costs with other people? even the waste would greatly reduce.
However, there are a lot of products that we have to own. In this case, you should think of another solution.
