The downside of more software support from manufacturers is that it will take longer for the older flagships price to go down, and by the time the prices are low enough there *might be* a better midrange device with better hardware for the same price

How many here already knew the reason and still watch this video.

i swear my S21 ultra can go for at least another 3-4 years...AT LEAST. Love it so much i just copped another one off amazon.

[necro_]

i kinda agree
but in my country if you find one its still very expensive
so we stuck with midrange phones

I've recently ordered the S24 Ultra and plan to trade in my S22 Ultra for extra cashback. During my time with the S22 Ultra, I discovered an unexpected issue. Initially, I believed the AMOLED screen was free from any burn-in. However, upon closer inspection of the area behind the status bar, I noticed faint signs of burn-in. This was surprising, especially after learning that OneUI 6.0 lacks specific AMOLED burn-in protection features. The light burn-in on my screen was disappointing. To address this, I've started using Good Lock's QuickStar to disable all icons on the status bar, which helps, but it's a workaround. I believe a built-in feature for auto-hiding the status bar in future Android updates would be highly beneficial. It would not only enhance the overall user experience but also play a crucial role in preventing screen burn-in, especially in static areas like the status bar.

Preach.
Everyone says buy the new 1000 phone or 1400
Just be patient and buy a older flagship it's amazing

Running an S10+, and I gotta say, I am perfectly happy with it, and due to the extra hardware features it has since it's an older flagship (SD card, headphone jack, Bixby Button which I have made into a quick action flashlight, etc.), I don't even want to upgrade!

[vernonleewarren]

You are absolutely right. It's better to buy a older flagship than a budget or mid-range phone. I only disagree if you can get a budget or mid-range phone that has great performance, good cameras, a great display, a headphone jack, expandable storage, great battery life and a IR Blaster. That pretty much describes my Redmi Note 11 pro. I love that device. The only thing that's missing for me is a always on Display and wireless charging. Also I get 67watt Super fast wired charging on it.

100% agree with you, there are tons of great phones now with 3-4 years of operating system updates and now with some doing 7 years affordable prices will be around the corner on flagship devices, I bought a Motorola thinkphone for 394 including taxes a month ago sd8 gen1 plus 144hz screen and interesting enough I’m on a January security patch on this phone needed an android backup to my 14 pro max and this phone fills the gap at a cheaper price may not be a flagship but I’m enjoying it and no performance issues whatsoever.

So many sketchy sellers out there, I'm done with buying used phones.

The problem with this is actually the brand itself. Most of Android's flagship would not be produced when a new generation hit the market. For example Samsung just launched S24 series, which means soon enough they will cut the S23 series out of market. It would be hard to find a new phone in box with full warranty.

[mosesmukuka]

Getting old flagship phones it's bae, the only probably is getting them as pre owned especially the those that came out 3 years ago

[e.l.]

S23 series is gonna be a great older flagship buy in the next couple of years.

I love my S20 FE, which is the upper mid-range phone. I got it in June 2021 and its still working for now. I did drop it accidentally a few times when it slipped out of my pocket and never once cracked. I do use a screen protector and a case.

Used to thing that midrange phones were the bees knees after getting a Nexus 5 through my carrier. I didn't see the need to get a Samsung or Apple phone. Then my gf and I upgraded to the Note 8 and it was over for me. I can never see myself rocking a midrange anything anymore. S21 FE was fantastic, was hoping that the 23 FE would come with a 512GB variant, but I'm holding out for now. Love the channel man!

A solid midrange phone does everything I need with ease and that's the same for the majority of users. I'd rather get a new midranger with long software support and a healthy battery.

I've been buying old flagship devices for awhile now. I bought the S8 when it first launced. When it came time to getting a new phone I ended up buying a refurbished Note 8 since I loved the S8 so much. That started a trend. I started going to Backmarket for older affordable flagship devices. Got my first and Note 10, followed by the S22 Ultra.

[madalisolubungo]

@matthews-tech i agree with you, getting an older flagship is way better than getting these midrange and budget phones because with an older flagship you get better display, speakers, cameras, build quality, processor etc.

[ardinsalim]

My only problem buying old flagship over midrange phones is the battery life. I Work almost exclusively outside so is rare for me to find outlet to charge my phones, and i dont want to carry bulky powerbank
