I don’t like spending $1k on a phone, but my iPhone 11 Pro lasted 4 years and the only reason I upgraded was because the 15 has USB-C. It would have needed a battery upgrade otherwise but modern phones do have much better longevity.

You'll get the same mileage out of a €300-€400 Samsung.

In terms of camera performance? You will not.

Cheap phones tend to have a lot more lag/jank than iPhones (or other $1k phones)

Depends how cheap. Midrange phones are fine and cost half the price of the equivalent iPhone.
