How often do you change your mobile phone?

in mobilephone •  2 years ago 

It has been 3 years that I have been using my phone and I am contemplating if I should buy a new phone or wait for another one more year. My phone is working in perfect condition, so I am a bit confused if I should go ahead or not as the new one is quite expensive.

Some people have this craze of keeping in trend with the latest models of the mobile phones, specially the younger generation. Every year there are new models launched and the old get obsolete. Since years I have been a Samsung user. Samsung phones are good but expensive and they too keep coming up with new models very often which are upgraded and have better features then the previous one. So then point is that how often one needs to change their phone. The prices of the mobile phones are crazy high these days. I am getting lured to buy the new model. The price is so high that I am putting a thought if it's really worth it to buy or wait for another one more year.

Last year when iphone 13 got launched it was a craze in the market and here in muscat it was not even easily available. My Son too wanted it and I was looking out. I managed to get after a wait of over a month. Now iphone 14 is already in the market. The price of iphone is even more then the Samsung phones.
I feel that these companies should limit the models and come up with a new model probably once in 2 years. So many people I know who bought iphone 13 just a year ago now wants to buy iphone 14 and I feel it is such a waste of money. These phones cost over 1500$.

And trust me some people have this belief that having an updated mobile phone makes an impression in the business community. I totally fail to understand how. But he says that when he sits with his clients with the latest model of an iphone he has better confidence to talk to them and it gives a good image of him to the clients. Such are the crazy beliefs of people over this instrument.

Thankfully in my home there are no such crazy people. Last year when I got an iphone for my son that was after 5 years of him using his phone and that too last 6 months with a broken screen. When we invest such huge amounts in something there has to be a good use of it making the spent money worth it.
I personally believe that one should use their mobile phone for a minimum of 3 to 4 years. What do you say?

I also wanted to get another phone since this present one is over a year already and the reason for changing it is that the camera isn't sharp as when it was new and taking pictures with it isn't okay for me.

People are so craze about getting new models of phone anytime it comes out and I wonder if they actually need to or save money for something else. Some are being intimidated while some are to oppress other people. I don't see need to keep changing phones to meet up with trends every moment but change it when you have used your present phone up to certain years or if it is giving you problem.
