Mine will turn 9 next week.

I don’t use it anymore but as seen in the screenshot, it still works. It’s on the last update of the stock ROM, but Android 4.2.2 is so old, I can’t update the installed apps anymore and even installing the fdroid store fails. A little more than 5 GB of the 16 GB internal storage are still free.

My beloved Fairphone 1 will also turn 9 years old by next week and is still working. Though the situation is the same as Ingo described. I still use it as a mp3-Player and to download podcasts and radio plays. Off topic, just in case someone is interested in “Lord of the Rings” in German: https://www1.wdr.de/mediathek/audio/wdr/herr-der-
