Still worth it
Still useful, buy carefully
A newer Android is safer if the gap is small, but this can still be a fair buy when condition, support, and price line up.

Why it still works
- It can still be a sensible Nigerian-market Android buy when the condition is clean and repairs will not be a struggle.
- Its Decide value score still holds up well enough to stay in the conversation.
- Shorter update runway matters, but a fair price and decent local support can still make this practical.
- Local ownership risk is not the worst part of this phone.
- Recent tracked pricing is doing it a favour; this would be harder to defend at a higher price.
Where it is aging
- Support is already late-stage, so this should be priced like a practical budget buy, not a fresh model.
- If a newer model is only a small jump in price, the newer one is usually the calmer buy.
