This is somewhat invalidated by the sales of older iPhones. I bought a $40 Kyocera one time. I suffered through a terrible camera, lousy software, slow everything, surely insecure software, lack of updates, and more. Later I realized I could have bought an iPhone 4s for $50 and been much, much better off. Currently I use an iPhone 6 that I purchased with no contract for $180. I suppose you could buy older Android phones too, but I think they stop getting updates sooner than iPhones. I've been impressed with how long Apple supports their old hardware.
