2nd Charge 5 died after just over a year

I bought the 1st Charge5 in June 2022. It worked well...until June '23, exactly a week after the warranty ran out.
TBF, the customer service was good and offered me a replacement free of charge.
The 2nd one just died, 14 months later. It went into a crash loop and shortly after that would not charge nor turn on. There's plenty of examples of people having similar issues on this forum. Still, I could say it lasted a long time for me, others reported Charge's not lasting few months.

So if you want to spend over £100/$160 each year - go for Charge! (6 seems to have similar issues, looking at the forums). Premium membership not included.
Not to mention Google bricking devices with firmware updates and removing features that people actually use (eg. web dashboard)

Wonderful planned obsolescence, isn't it?
