Other than your carrier give it for free or cheap, I don’t really see the reason why should you buy new phone. I’ve been using Redmi Note 9 for past 3 years and recently got my had on Poco F5. I don’t see the point of my ‘upgrade’. I sold it and come back to my Note 9. Gaming? Most of them are p2w or microtransaction...
IPhone maybe? I know they restrict your battery capacity with software as your phone ages, so the short lifespan has nothing to do with the actual condition of the battery. Iirc some other brands do it to, but I don’t know which ones.
I’m pretty certain it’s not a rule there, everyone just kind of assumes it’s what you’re meant to do when they post, because they see every other post.
Kind of a self enforcing unofficial rule, I guess?
What's the point of buying new phones every years?
