Well, let's not get crazy. It's fine (I'm using it currently because my Samsung S9 died) but it's definitely no perfect phone. It doesn't even have water resistance and the screen to body ratio is pretty bad, IMO.

Only upside is the thing is built in such a way that it has barely taken any damage from the years of abuse I put it through.

I'm likely getting an iPhone 12 Pro Max very soon and will continue to only use the iPhone 5S I've had since 2013 as a backup.

You're going from a 5s to a Pro Max? That's almost a jump across product categories... like switching from an iPhone to an iPad Mini.

Or from a Commodore 64 to a first-generation iMac.

> the screen to body ratio is pretty bad, IMO

if rated against _my_ body, the ratio is damn near perfect
