Some unsolicited life advice: don’t feel bad about getting rid of stuff that you don’t like (or in the words of Marie Kondo, doesn’t “spark joy”).
If you had sold that phone to someone else it wouldn’t be wasted. Someone else would have continued to use it.
I don’t claim to know your financial situation but it probably would have been worth the loss.
Problem isn't throwing away the old phone, it's getting a new one. I was like this with the iPhone 6. I don't really care and just need a phone that works, but separately, the 6 was the worst iPhone ever cause of batterygate.
