Who the fuck is buying new iPhones every year like it’s a new call of duty release?

Same dickheads who buy call of duty and football games every year?
I got my first one, an iphone 18 months ago, I’ll be wanting at least another 18 months out of it

tbh if you're buying call of duty every year you're just as much of a rube

I don't think many do upgrade every year now. 24 month contract is the norm isn't it? Even then I wouldn't upgrade every 2 years unless it was starting to slow. I am on Android and smashed my Samsung so got a cheap £110 phone as I had a few months to go. Stuck with it ever since and got a sim only deal with unlimited calls and texts, 45gb data and social media apps don't even rector into data allowance for £10 a month. I am probably going to by a new Samsung up front in the coming month as the camera is shite and it's starting to fill up now but the difference between budget phones and the top tier is probably only a 3 or 4 years now

I don't even know what model I have right now, Baconster. Either 11 or 12? But I came up from a 4S or 5S. Easily 6 years or more between models.

They all do the same thing, and the cameras are intentionally kneecapped so they marginally improve them with the next model.
I’d argue that the biggest reason to upgrade sooner is the battery life deteriorating.

since we're talking about phones; I've lost my best DOOGEE nightvision/underwater phone, It just kept ringing for a week (good battery innit)... I've got a feeling somebody might have it, either that or it's lost in a crevasse somewhere... either is possible 'cus I was blacked-out but mobile.
Today I finally transferred my line to a new SIM card, if I wanted to block the phone I would've had to wait 3 days for a SIM in post.

I do have security that takes a pic of any wrong password-putter (jokes go here), & tracking as well as the standard google/android 'find my device', BUT... as a paranoid fella I turned all the tracking stuff off, I only allow location when I'm using my cycling app.

I don't want somebody using my phone, I texted offering a generous reward. It's UK registered so how can I fuck-up anyone with the phone / prevent it's use?

I gladly, and stupidely, buy a new Call of Duty because it is evergreen

i don't know what it's called in retail but it's a purchase that just makes me think about when I first found the game, and that latter part of Fall it comes out on.

....but not Jenny....I want to forget about jenny

I don't masturbate to jenny anymore




....I will buy "Mirage" this year as well

I always wait until I absolutely need a new one, funster. My current iFunster is now paid off and I'm never getting another until the fucker breaks or it becomes so outdated it's unusable, funster.

Saw an article that suggested it’s a much better idea instead buying a new phone every year to take that money and invest in Apple but the people getting a new phone every time claim they “can’t afford” to invest and stocks are only for really rich people.

When I worked for FiOS and had to visit the Verizon retail stores, I would schedule office time on apple launch days because they don't have time to do anything else. The lines are out the door. I don't get it. If I want a phone I order it online
