Serious poost about cool and unusual uses for old smartphones.

So, Ive got my Galaxy S7 about to be made redundant by my pixel 4a when it arrives in the UK. So I'm thinking of what can I do with my S7 when it no longer has a sim card in it, and its no longer my daily driver... Sure, I could sell it for pennies, and sure, I could put it away in a drawer (as a backup in case of an emergency) or could I do something else with it?

I could hook up a security cam somewhere and use it plugged in as a dedicated display, even recording footage, or giving me an alarm on certain event triggers, or I might mount it to my sim rig, to use as another display... But maybe I'm missing out on something much better and more useful, that I simply have not thought of?

Any ideas guys? What cool things have you done with your old, yet still fully working smartphones?
