I decided a long time ago to buy the cheapest unlocked android phone I could get at the time. 6 phones for 2 people over 10 years. I paid 140 to 200 (100-150 US$) pretax for each. This has been mostly Motorola E or G phones. This has kept us current with apps resource needs. The total cost of 6 phone is less than the current cost of an iPhone 14. I have kept all of them and reuse them as night table Alarm clocks or second screens to settle question like "How old is that actor" while watching something.
