Fairly happy with it. Best part is that it's got a headphone jack, stylus, and doesn't have hole punches. Downside is that the bezels can be close, so if you're not careful with how you hold it with a thin/no case, then the pad of your hands ends up constantly touching the screen.
Not very often, except when it's been stolen, etc. I only tend to upgrade when the phone itself is either starting to not work due to insufficient system resources, or some part is failing (like the battery).
A Samsung smartwatch. I had a Garmin one that I preferred more, but the frame broke, and I was hoping that the metal frame on the Samsung would make it tougher, although I personally think that it's a bit overkill software and hardware wise, preferring the simpler watch interfaces of both Pebble and Garmin. I don't really need to text or anything on my watch, and it would be basically impossible with that tiny screen.
I also use Sennheiser HD 4.50BTNC (Gen 1) bluetooth headphones, and KZ ZSN PRO X earbuds, for when the headphones are out of battery, and/or I need a wired connection (the one on the headphones no longer works).
For my computer, I tend to use Windows. Linux every so often on a Live USB or something if I want to poke around on it.
I have an iPad Mini 2, since Android's tablet experiences aren't very good/rather limited (judging by how some of them work in Samsung's DeX mode), and because having a hook into the Apple ecosystem can be handy for some things, like trying to pin down an issue, or see how Apple does things compared to Android.
