Sometimes I will use something and realize I've owned it forever. It's a nice change in our throwaway reality. I think my personal record is a bicycle multi-tool I got for one of my first bikes, ~25 years ago. Still have it, still use it. When it comes to electronic devices I have a Panasonic mini Hi-Fi from ~2005. Never felt like changing it.

What's your record?

very lucky, my KB's battery died years ago and I never bothered to replace it.

I am eyeing a used Kindle Oasis for a while, but doesn't really seems to have a reason to upgrade as I still have Paperwhite and Voyage.

P.S I believe the main reason for upgrading the KB is for the lights that all Kindles have now.

I bought the official leather cover for it, which has a book light built into it.
