If I could drop $1000+ for the device all at once, I already would be getting them carrier unbranded.

Then don’t buy a $1k device, and instead buy something you can afford?
Otherwise, there are tons of buy now, pay later services, so you could just use any of those.

Not go into debt to upgrade something that actually in most cases doesn’t need upgrading. What a amazing thought.

Yup. I upgraded my phone because it ran out of software updates (had for >3 years). My new phone cost <$400 and has >5 years of software support, if the hardware lasts that long. A $1k device is not necessary and is a luxury item, and you shouldn’t go into debt for luxuries…
