I'm still using Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 from 2015. Replaced battery 3 times. Each time for <10$ from aliexpress. The last swap was few months ago and surprisingly this one was the best out of all swapped batteries so far.

I don't plan to replace the phone any time soon. I just wish phones were made more like PCs - you buy a hardware and then you put any software you want on it. Now you buy a hardware and a year of software support then good luck.
