  Where they slow down your phone to try and force an upgrade? Let’s be real, how many people keep phones passed their 1-2 year upgrade cycle? I’m coming up on 4 years a my android, and outside of me dropping it in a pool it’s worked well! I’m finally ready to upgrade tho since it’s still funky ever since then.

    I usually upgrade every 6 to 7 years.

    iPhones are premium, whether you like Apple or not. I like an SD slot and the ability to have access to different apps. Most people don’t care. Apple built a phone that works and looks/performs well years after its released (when they’re not intentionally throttling phones with updates.)
