The battery can be replaced repeatedly.

However some ICs cannot be repaired if they stop working from wear and tear.

The other problem is that Apple stopped pushing new iOS updates for this model.

This means apps are not supported either.

If you ever reset your phone, you likely will not be able to redownload the apps on it.

If you want a similar phone, get the iPhone SE or 5S, which are under $200USD.
