Do you upgrade your devices, just for games?

Just because they're cheap it is a bad way of looking at at. Lots of small cheap purchases add up over time.

I don't even spend much the phone I had was already out for 2 years and I bought the last one that was on sale which was essentially half the price it originally came out for.

don't you want to get the new model?
they have amazing speed and features than the older ones
 
Blackangel said:
what are you talking about?
new phones have amazing camera power, speed and new andoroid versions

Yeah but the changes are very incremental, not drastic. If you use an older model and a model that came the next year simultaneously you'll barely notice any difference.

Incremental is a good way to put it like sure they are getting better but no where near as good to justify spending over 1k on a new phone every year. The phones get un noticbly faster the cameras can take slightly better pictures the screens are slightly higher quality plus once you get a new phone you will be use to all the new features with in a few days and you wont even take notice of the upgrades. It is kind of like when I get a new keyboard for the first 2 days I can really notice the new feel but after a week its just another keyboard which I use with out thinking about.

My last phone was over 3.5 years old and had a 5.5 inch lcd screen with 16 gb storage and a mediocre processor.

I got a new one 2 weeks back and the difference is really really noticeable. So yeah it's noticeable when there's a 3 generation gap at least.

Well explain to me the significant upgrades that are on your new phone that were not on your old phone.

I just connect my phone to my PC storage has never been a problem and face scanner is not as fast as a fingerprint scanner, still no need for me to upgrade.

but it is very cool.
and you just have to put your face across the screen to unlock it. it's got the coolest vibe

Yeah but I can just use the fingerprint scanner while picking up my phone and its already unlocked and ready to go before I even look at the screen. Face scanning would take longer and just seems like an annoying hassle.

that makes sense
then why about the camera and screen size? wouldn't that matter to you at all?

I cant miss something I don't have. If you look at a new phone and go back to your old one you will notice but not the other way around.
