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 think I have ever paid more than $300 for one.
I bought a pixel 3a discounted to $300 when it was maybe a year old. Then when the 6a came out, I was able to trade in the 3a for a $300 credit, so ended up getting the 6a for maybe $150. Before that, I had a Nexus 5 which I also bought at $300 and held onto for years.
I normally get a Pixel on contract or I’ll buy it outright if it’s on offer. The Pixel does tend to go on offer way more than an iPhone.
I bought my current phone for equivalent of 150 USD this year. I flashed lineage os immediately and without bloatware it is running pretty smooth. I am pretty happy with it.
Interesting, which phone is it?
It is Infinix Hot 30 (Asia only) Link More precisely I bought it for 110 USD :P
I can’t find ROMs for any Infinix phone on the Lineage OS website.
GSI
$3-400. Upper range if I can’t get anything for a trade-in, which is rare. I generally only get Pixel a-series but would definitely look at motorola again. It’s what I had before a-series existed.
$800 for an unlocked s23, technically way more than I wanted to pay. Ideally I like to stick around $400-600.
about 350
maybe less in the future, cause most phones are good enough already.
'Bout tree fiddy
I’ll be sticking with my note 9 for a good while longer though
About $200 for a used flagship from a couple years ago. I currently have a oneplus 9 I bought used last year and it’s completely fine, there’s nothing important I’m missing from any higher end phone
$1/day after discounts and rebates. Right now that is in the Pixel / Nord range.
I had a similar approach until recently: 100€/year +100€, mostly 300-400€ phones for about 4-5 years (so not that many). But my last phone was 500€ and i doubt I’ll use it for 6 years, so let’s see
Between $200 and $300. Moto G Stylus 5g may be my next one.
Used to be max 200€, then 300€ and my last phone was 220€. But prices keep rising and next will probably be 500. I never do trade-ins though and keep using the old phones afterwards.
Price is not the only factor for me: deGoogled is priority number one, and repairability is not far behind.
With that in mind, I’d pay a lot of money for a rather average phone because that’s exactly what I got: yesterday’s phone at today’s price. But I got what I wanted and I’m happy with it. So the price was right.
The last 3 phones I have had were/are budget phones. So less than $500, if not lower. Don’t remember what my last couple were, but my current is a roughly $200USD Samsung.
I change phone every 5 years or so. Always pay around €600. Next time I probably will be going with someone 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.
Sub-800.
$1,000,000
Does it come with bloatware?
