after being an iphone user for years i switched to Android when apple released iphone 7. up to iphone 6s the innovation was worth upgrading but since then 'flagship' devices have been adding just gimmicks while charging 4 digit amounts. I got my OnePlus 5T for 499 and two years later it works like it did on its first day. Unlike iphones that would slow down after exactly 1 year when a new iphone was released. right now 400-500 dollar phones do everything a phone is supposed to do and lack nothing compared to flagships. you can tell most people agree with this judging by weak sales of new releases. customers are holding on to their phones for 2-3 years and rightfully so. smartphone frenzy is over and looks like 'few hundred dollars' is the new budget people think its worth.
