I only really use my phone for light browsing, texting, and calling.
I decided to splash out for my current phone, so that I could use it for 5+ years. $700 new in 2018, 8GB RAM, 256 Storage, Octacore CPU, 3700 mAh battery. OnePlus stopped pushing security updates, so I flashed another ROM that is still being updated. I expect this thing to run for a few more years.
The iPhone out in 2018 was the XS. the 256 GB version was $1150; worse CPU, worse battery, less RAM. I believe Apple is still supporting it for updates, but it should be near EOL.
The whole thing revolves around being ableto flash a ROM, though. For me it’s a no-brainer, but I don’t begrudge anyone for not being willing. If I wasn’t going to do that… I might actually get an iPhone, just for the extended shelf life. > Z Fold 3
