The now-dead plan was for people to pay a monthly fee to get a new iPhone every year.

    Given that a smartphone will remain in good working order, and reasonably current in terms of tech, for 2-3 years, you’d have to be a bit of a mug to pay this.

    And I’m pretty rough on my tech, I imagine most people would do far better than that.

      My last iPhone lasted more than six years hahaha

      I didn’t even need to upgrade, but I wanted 120hz, USB-C, and better cat pics in low light. I did not realize how big of a difference it would be for cat pix. It’s wild that I don’t have to charge it every night, too!
