Is this happening on Lemmy? I haven’t seen it

I get your point. But we’d probably adjust if there’s less releases, I think. More choice might not be better when it comes to the planet and it’s natural resources. And we’re now at a point where phones barely change when compared to the year before.

If there’s a new iPhone every two years, you can still decide when the improvements justify upgrading for you.

Good. We don’t (anymore) need a new iPhone / MacBook / iPad every year. Only when the improvements are substantial. Now they’re just adding and changing things to make it seem like anything changed at all compared to the previous generation of devices.

What? Each phone costs them hundreds of dollars to make. The profit margin is still large, but phones are not cheap to make.
