    Yea people forget you don’t have to buy the latest more expensive phone. I have a nord, about 300 to 400 bucks. It’s great. My mom has the latest Samsung, paid a grand and she doesn’t use 90 percent of the features. It’s ridiculous.

        I got a Pixel 6pro for €280 the year before. That will be fine for many years to come.

        I stopped buying flagship phones when they went above €500 or so. And these days I wonder why I ever wanted them.

          Because back in the day midrange phones were pretty damn terrible. These days the only real tradeoff is the worse cameras, and they’re still fairly good anyway.
