I'm in the same boat with my 4a 5G. I feel no need or motivation to upgrade, but the battery is starting to show its age.
I hear that. The kicker is that my Pixel has a cracked screen, too, which for the 3a means all sorts of malfunctions until I replace it. (Currently the camera turns on almost every time I click the power button.) I need to fix it or toss it, and shelling out $160 to fix the screen and battery is likely a bad idea given the age of the phone. It sucks though: the phone still feels great, and I have no need to upgrade other than repair costs.
I am VERY MUCH looking forward to the day when we expect to keep these devices around for longer. I'm interested in the new Fairphone release with fully replaceable parts, but it's going to be expensive (and possibly mediocre).
