why is buying a $1500 phone every 2 years no big deal but buying a $3000 PC or $1500 console once a decade seem insane to you lot
max i spent on a phone was 400€ and I replace mine every 5-6 years.
I don't put a lot of money in bricks.
>>743367196>why is buying a $1500 phone every 2 years no big dealDoesn't actually work that way. The people that ""buy"" a phone every 2 year are trading up with their provider. It's literally free
Because a new phone gets you pussyShiteofagames are worthless
>>743367196Because those EVIL RICH! and their AI DATACENTERS! we need SOCIALISM NOW!!
>>743367196Phones are a necessity
>>743367196people buy phones on a plan with no interest you'd have take out an expensive loan for a pc
>>743367196Only the PC is not insane really. After 5 years it's still valuable and you can sell it to upgrade.

>>743368513I scavenge e-waste, so I've always known. When I'm done with my phones I turn them to dust.
>>743367196I bought refurbished phone for 150 bucks 6 years ago. I don't replace till it literally stops working you mong
>>743367196I’m not buying a $1,500 phone every blah blah you’re circumcised and I’m not.
>>743367196I use androidexpandable memory means I don't need to buy a new phone for many years.Also it's better for gaming and I can use my own software without much hassle.I've vibe coded a few apps just for me.anyways literally mathematically spending 3k now or later makes no difference and based on time constraints in most cases it's better to just spend money right away if you're not using it for anything ofc not talking about emergency liquidity because you might as well pretend that money doesn't exist.And if you literally cannot afford to it's because you actually do not make even a net revenue of 3k a year because if you have mostly or annual expenses you don't actually make X you make X-Y = Z < X.>TL;DRyou're actually poor and stupid. Proof: how else do businesses make money without genuinely innovating or if anything making things worse? QED.
>>743368513>buy thing one time>pay 0$ to upgrade thing from that point on every 2 years>IT'S NOT FREElol
