That's why I don't waste $500 on a phone when I can get a great flagship phone that's a couple years old for $100. If it gets broken, it's not that hard to spend another $100 for a replacement. If it gets broken in a year, I get a replacement that's $100 and now a year newer than the last one. So my question to you is: why do you feel the burning need to stay on the cutting edge? Do you always have to have a car that's less than a year old?
