Curious to see how much the majority of people here spend, especially with flagships prices getting out of hand in the last few years.

I don’t mind paying ~1300€ for a new phone, if that phone meets my need. I know it’s a little bit too much according to how much would other people spend, but if I can get more stuff done with that phone, I think it’s money well spent.

Verizon and Google keep doing these wild trade in deals. They keep giving me $600+ to trade in last year’s Pixel with 3 year “financing”. So $22/mo and I always have the current Pixel. I know they’re screwing me, but I can’t figure out how 🤷🏻

200 up to about 450 is where I normally go. I always go for the mid-range devices though. Like I had a Moto G several times. I have the OnePlus Nord N200 right now. I’ve had the Pixel “A” series before. So I generally go for the mid-range devices in that 200 to 450 dollar category.

I change phone every 5 years or so. Always pay around €600. Next time I probably will be going with something like the CMF Phone 1 or similar, it seems to have all I need for €200. Really a quality screen is all I need because everything else is very similar for regular use no matter if is high end of low end.
