Because to some, either an iPhone was a major investment, or one they couldn't make at all and were gifted/handed-down an old device. I ran out and grabbed an iPhone 6, but I'm a pretty lucky person to be able to. I know others who can't afford to - who are on pre-paid minimalist plans and can't even practically afford the monthly uptick for a new device payment plan.
Or you have a kid. I don't know...
- 3JPLW 12y agoExactly. Once I moved away from the expensive plans with "free" phones, it made me value and appreciate the major investment that a pocket computer is much more than I had before. And I'm saving lots of money — I recoup the cost of the (used) devices within 12-16 months, with every month thereafter being a bonus ~60 USD (for two iPhones). The $800-1200 outlay for two replacement phones is a very nice motivator to stretch them as far as we can, too.
