What do you think about upgrading phones as soon as a new version is released?
“I personally don’t think there’s a need. There’ll be an upgrade on just a few things. How much do you really need? I still have an iPhone SE and really the only thing I’d want is a bigger screen.”

“I think it’s kind of pointless. Like I guess waiting until the price goes down is best, but I know the iPhone 8 came out. But personally I would just wait it out until my phone actually breaks, just upgrade it.”

“Ridiculous. Ridiculous. Because it’s pretty much the company trying to make you spend more money. I was happy with iPhone 4, if you’re gonna go like iPhone version, and I kind of wish I still had my iPhone 4. They just make it more complicated. I don’t know, I think it’s pretty ridiculous. ”

“I don’t care to. If the one I have right now works, why replace it?”

“With iPhones I think it’s stupid, not much really changes. Androids, you should really wait a year to see if it’s safe, after what happened with the Note 7.”

“Well I just looked at the iPhone X. My funds are low but I’d personally really like to get it really soon.”

“It’s pretty stupid, it’s just a waste of money. You don’t really get anything new out of it if you upgrade right away.”

“It’s a waste, to be honest. The differences between generations aren’t major. You should wait until the next-next generation, to get a real upgrade.”
