@otternonsense, +1. Not much interest in the new iPhones at whatever price. Just went from iPhone6 to iPhone7 earlier this year and have not seen one “feature” worth going to a newer model. This puts me firmly in the below-$500 every few years for a new (to me) iPhone. The savings are very real and put to better (again for me) uses. Some of those include wine, dining out, savings, whatev.
