It's about time to move on from my 2xl, I'm shooting for a used/referb for under $250.

4xl is good, but you'd need a new battery at this point.

I just gave away my 4a 5G and the battery was fine.

That's awesome! My 4xl was having a hard time making it through a day with minimal SoT.

Yeah, my 4a needs to be charged multiple times a day. The phone is still great, screen in perfect condition, still have space, and it's quick, but the battery is just shot. From fully charged to 76% in the last hour.

That's what I found with my 4xl. I upgraded to a 8, because the battery was crappy, but my experience is the same on the new device. If the 4 was still getting software updates, I would have just gotten a new battery.

Just changed the battery of my 4A, it's a hassle but it's worth it
