Planned Obsolescence: A Challenge for Our Society

Today, many electronic devices, especially smartphones, are designed to have a limited lifespan. This is known as planned obsolescence: a set of practices that push consumers to replace their devices more often than they should.

The causes can be numerous:

• Batteries difficult to replace;
• Rare or expensive spare parts;
• Software updates that slow down devices;
• Deliberately complicated repairs.

Why is this a problem?

Planned obsolescence has significant consequences:

🌍 For the environment

• Increase in electronic waste;
• Excessive consumption of natural resources;
• Increase in emissions linked to the manufacture of new devices.

💰 For consumers

• More frequent spending to replace a phone;
• Difficulty keeping a device that is still functional.
