I haven't even wanted a new phone for several years, because so many of the new features are utter crap once you get past how pretty they are in ads and when they are fresh out of the box. For example, I had one of the first Edges. It was stupidly expensive. But the screen looked amazing and it was vaguely faster than my Moto G. For a while... Within weeks, it developed a crack. Then 3. Then I noticed everyone on the bus/subway that had Edges were also dealing with cracks. Embarrassing. You spend well over a thousand to end up looking like you can't afford a good phone. So I trashed the Edge and went back to my Moto G, which I still use to this day, and which still has never cracked. If the newest phones are to be seen status symbols, cracked screens (and whatever numerous problems present in these folding screens) are a serious antithesis to the grandiose expectations, and exposes a very sad reality about the whole cell phone business.
