Doesn'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 pussy
Shiteofagames are worthless

Because those EVIL RICH! and their AI DATACENTERS! we need SOCIALISM NOW!!

Phones are a necessity

>>743367196
people buy phones on a plan with no interest
you'd have take out an expensive loan for a pc
>>
>>743367196
Only the PC is not insane really. After 5 years it's still valuable and you can sell it to upgrade.

>public never questions why pocket supercomputers are free
>"the phone companies must just be really nice folk"

If they said "free human tracking devices that let you watch Youtube" would you still take them?

I scavenge e-waste, so I've always known. When I'm done with my phones I turn them to dust.

I bought refurbished phone for 150 bucks 6 years ago. I don't replace till it literally stops working you mong

I’m not buying a $1,500 phone every blah blah you’re circumcised and I’m not.

I use android
expandable 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;DR
you're actually poor and stupid. Proof: how else do businesses make money without genuinely innovating or if anything making things worse? QED.

>buy thing one time
>pay 0$ to upgrade thing from that point on every 2 years
>IT'S NOT FREE
