In the current spectrum, how much should one spend to get the best value? I know everyone has a different taste and budget. But analysing the current trend of smartphone culture could give a bit of insight into spending wisely.

    I prefer older used flagships. It’s hardly depends on the use case though. I don’t care about camera, games or what so ever. Phone, messenger and maybe a handful of apps for social and homelab. So for me it’s max 100€

      This is getting to be a better and better option with Google and Samsung promising more than 3yrs of OS updates.

        Meh, OS updates are overrated, especially now that Android is so much better with battery life.

        I have a phone running Android 9… And it’s super fast. And if I switch it to Lineage/Divest, it’s even faster.
