Gave the headphone jack a proper cleaning, actually seems like it made things worse :/ Oh well, it's not that bad yet, if it gets worse I'll take it to the repair shop I guess

As I took her apart I realised that for a device I've been using extensively pretty much every day for 8-9 years, her battery life is still amazing? She easily lasts more than 10 hours of continuous music playback on one full charge, I take her on train rides and after 6 hours, she still displays half the battery. They don't make them like this nowadays (mainly because they don't really make them nowadays at all, 'them' being Sony)

#I didn't want to damage the tiny motherboard so I didn't bother taking it out #especially since it seems like I'd have to take out the screen for that too #we talked about it with mum and she doesn't really fully get it why I want to fix her rather than just listen to music on my phone akjhg #but she knows I'm sentimental and when I told her about the benefits of being able to adjust the volume/change the song #without looking at the screen and with her still in my pocket #she kinda just went 'ohhhhh'#+ she also remembers when she got her for me as a Christmas gift lol #if somebody tells me I don't take care of my electronics I'll slap them across the face #I just use them a lot so obviously some things break over time #but I never throw things out if I can fix them #poor person behaviour but also sentimental as fuck person behaviour #I also don't like getting new things to replace the old things generally speaking #still have my previous mp3 player btw #the problem with him being that he doesn't want to plug into the computer anymore #so I'm stuck with music from grade school/early middle school on it #actually fuck it let's try it with a different wire #maybe it fixed itself over those 9 years idk
