csr conscious companies that want to produce LUXURY phones that are highly expensive, made of precious metals and are not prone to breaking down and used over a long period of time(akin to buying a new car in terms of responsibility) might do better in this regard by doing away with the negative impacts of cellphones’ disposability.
