Do We Really Want New Phones Anymore? | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Apple, Google, Samsung, and Huawei have all unveiled their latest devices in recent months. But here’s the real question: why do new releases not thrill us anymore? Is the smartphone market too saturated? Do you really need to upgrade to a new phone? Palki Sharma tells you.

They can stand any number of hours but they to VOTE they don't havetime. It is such a shame

[man_manthan]

Slightly updated rectangle 😂
Palki ma'am s sarcasm 🏅

[voshonews]

I've never seen a honest journalist like Palki before, she's always spot on.

[calicoesblue]

“It still looks like a slightly updated rectangle” Lmao🤣🤣🤣🤣

[abhishekbanerjee]

Ma'am you just spoke what I have been feeling for ages . 😢😢
We need more emotions than gadgets .
We are becoming "machine men with machine hearts " 😢😢

[tradehut]

Those people standing in line have a dopamine issue

[saiteja]

Don't buy a new phone until your old one bricks.

[mathad]

Palki, you are right. Still I am using my iphone 10. I always upgrade after 10 years or early if phone lost or damage

[puneetsaxena]

Most intelligent and honest News Editor cum Analyst cum patriot in Indian Media History. She always purify and rationalize one's ethics and ideologies

[vineet]

They are promoting impulse purchases by showing stupid feature which anyone would rarely use. I have iPhone X still in good condition and working nicely. Never let the battery over charge or memory get full. That’s an only thing you need to take care to get optimum performance.

[rebecavalera]

My old phone doesn't go around tracking me like the new phones.

[RDYZ]

Phones are getting upgraded... whereas as a society we are wahi ka wahi.... that's the future.... unfortunately.... upgraded phones doesn't necessarily mean upgraded human beings... we tend to forget ourselves.... just few days ago, a boy was in the news for emotionally blackmailing his poor florist mother into buying an iphone worth 1 lakh ... she gave all her savings otherwise the boy was threatening to go on a hunger strike... Boy got iPhone, mother lost her smile...

[DesiCarAssistant]

There are two journalists I truly admire - Palki Sharma of Firstpost (for her honest and unbiased reporting) and Archana Tiwari of The Rajdharma (for her courage and ability to dig out the truth). More power to both of them.

[Gourab_IN]

Fact is we don't know what we actually want .. this is where these companies are winning..

[andrewthacker]

Yes, it’s amazing the craze for new iPhones. Im surprised it happens in India.

[deveshpande]

People often get carried out due to social pressure. Most of the people uses only 10%-20% of phone features but changes the phone frequently.

[platinumpalms]

Bro respect for the ones who stood for 20 hours
We now no how many people don’t really have a job

[z.t.]

"A slightly updated rectangle." That's brutal.

[sivasankaris]

Slightly updated rectangle 😃, good line

[galabaga]

Absolutely right this time, Palki Sharma.
