content: I have an old-ass android that I frankensteined via some older phone ROMs to run Android 7.1 and it does so flawlessly. The whole thing about needing something new for the latest "shiny" OS is bullshit mostly, unless it actually uses sensors that the prior model didn't have. Apple is the big one that glues all their shit in so it can't be worked on. Fuck them. And fuck Droid too if they adopt that shit.
