I am on my fifth iPhone. I easily sold/traded in the previous four after replacement. In two of the cases, I ended up making a profit! Further, in each case I did so after three to four years of use. The one exception is an iPhone 8 I a) bought used from Sprint/T-Mobile, and b) traded in after 18 months to the same carrier for an incredible deal toward a new iPhone 13; otherwise I would still be happily using it.[1] There is no way that any used Android phone, even the most expensive flagship model, would ever be worth anywhere as much. And that's not including their lack of software updates. Meanwhile, the iPhone 5S I sold in 2017 after four years of use believing that it would soon lose software updates a) did not lose active support until 2019, and b) still is getting security fixes (the most recent four months ago)! [1] More happily than the iPhone 13, really. I hate Hate HATE Face ID.
