Any article about personal frugality that mentions buying Apple anything can safely be ignored.
- doubled112 4y agoI'm not sure. Frugal maybe not, but in terms of long term usefulness? I used to think the same way about phones too, but this time it didn't seem as cut and dry as it used to. I keep a phone for as long as possible. They don't usually get scratched up or broken. Still have a working LG Optimus One in my phone graveyard, for example. Unfortunately, Android 2.3 isn't cutting it any longer. An iPhone usually has software support for a long time. A budget Android device not so much, and a premium Android device that does costs about as much as an iPhone. We'll see how it works out. I could end up eating these words in a couple of years.
