Yesterday was the end of my old Apple iPhone 5S. It ‘died’ the most unfortunate death when the battery expanded unexpectedly. In other words, the battery–which had required service– finally bloated up and caused the phone to become distended. The front panel was separated from the body, rendering the end of my iPhone 5S. Boo hoo hoo.

I have been using the iPhone 5S as my Spotify music center, playing music all day daily. As a result of this constant use, I achieved thousands of minutes on Spotify annually. Hehehe.
However, the phone could not keep up with the constant usage and needed external power support. And this was the death of it. With power plugged in and music playing non-stop, my iPhone 5S eventually met its untimely demise.
But I shouldn’t be upset, as the phone is ten years old and has served me well for five years before I upgraded to the iPhone XR. Then the phone had a new lease of life to be my music center.
RIP, my iPhone 5S – a much loved and appreciated device, and it’s most unfortunate it met an unexpected end.
