Smartphone technology has plateaued over the years, which has an unexpected benefit- You don't need the latest model. The older model is much cheaper and entirely sufficient. You can, in fact, go back several generations, to the point that you can get 2 old phones for less than 1 new phone.

Cellular iPad has non-duplicative use cases for 99% of time when not needed as backup for mobile phone. Upcoming iPad Mini will likely exit Broadcom WiFi + Qualcomm cellular walled gardens of RF baseband insecurity. Pixel uses Broadcom.
