In most ways, but they're definitely more fragile than before.
I can drop my modern portable computing unit (phone with a basic shell) with no worries but I would stress out if I dropped a Compaq Portable from the same height
My current phone is holding up the best out of any phone I've owned. With most of them, I've been ready for the upgrade after the contract was up on the last one. The last one I went for a little while, but was kinda in the market at no rush right away.
With this one, the only reason I'm thinking of a new phone is so I can root it and install an OS that isn't so tied to Google. It still performs well and the battery is fine. No cracks on the screen, all buttons work, even the stupid bixby button.
Longevity compared to dumb phones that dominated the 20th century, ok, it's probably not going to last like those ones. But compared to the early smart phones of the 00s? Way better.
