      Which is ironically the same as the $1999 xPhone 24 Pro Max XXL Z-Flip 4d-folding hextuple AI 8k camera with Bionic 10Ghz chip including real neurons from last year.

    Not surprising. I used to update every 2 years but my last couple have had a 3 or 4 year gap.

    As it should be really. These can be very expensive devices that only make sense if you get a decent life out of them.

      When smartphones first took off, each new one was a large upgrade. But each passing year sees new phones being more and more iterative. There’s hardly any difference at all anymore between individual years.

      I’m at the point now where I keep my phones until they break or stop getting security updates.
