Call me a curmudgeon, but nothing in the last decade or so of smartphone development has sparked the least bit of interest or excitement for me, this included.

Call me a curmudgeon, but nothing in the last decade or so of smartphone development has sparked the least bit of interest or excitement for me, this included. Battery life maybe? Seems like a matured product category. Which is fine - maybe we just leave them alone and last as long as possible. Or keep churning about notch vs no notch, smallish vs. largeish vs. smallish again, etc.
- mettamage 3y agoThe original iPhone SE to the iPhone 12 mini was quite the upgrade for me to be honest.
- GordonS 3y agoI have a 4 year old Xiaomi phone, which had excellent specs at the time of purchase. Now, phones with more impressive benchmark scores and cameras exist... but I'm not into gaming on my phone, and somehow the battery is still great, so it still does everything I need. I just don't see a compelling reason to upgrade.

- tootie 3y agoAny low-end Android phone is more than capable enough for 99% of daily use for less than half the price and you can get things like extended battery and, of course, USB-C charging. And yet Apple keeps eating into Android's market share. Apple owns their market on the strength of their marketing.
