You’re making me buy a new phone

You are considering only the economy, but I think people keeping older phones are also considering the environment (carbon dioxide, other pollution, mining etc).

That's the main reason I'm using a 5 year old phone.

Apple has an amazing recycling program (I know because I’ve seen Daisy in action). If you care about all that, bringing your iPhone to Apple at the end of its lifetime is the best decision you can make.

Apple puts most phones into a shredder for 'recycling'. [Daisy is cool, but...](https://www.ifixit.com/News/15794/apple-daisy-cobalt-recycli...)

Thanks for explaining to me what I personally saw during my press visits to Apple recycling facilities.
