Flagship phone or midrange + upgrade more often?

After years of flagships I switched to a midrange phone and honestly barely notice the difference.

Could not agree more.

Two-week battery or nothing — daily charging killed watches for me.

The handheld I picked has replaced my console entirely.

Good point, I had not thought of it that way.

Midrange + faster upgrade cycle is the best value play, agreed.

I disagree slightly, but I can see where you are coming from.

Bumping this because I ran into the same thing today.
