If you think update your phone, read this article. Surely save.
Summer 2018. Manufacturers produce new and new phone models, and buyers continue to acquire them, carefully depicting deep satisfaction on the face, moving even to joy in places. However, in fact it does not make any sense.
Remember how it all started. Let's come back at least about 10 years ago.
The release of each new model was an event. And not at all because Nokia or Motorola arranged a presentation in the Louvre, organized a free tour for journalists and poured TV advertising. No, the thing is that new smartphones really differed from their predecessors. Manufacturers produced devices with qualitatively different characteristics and new revolutionary functions.
But everything changed. Now the smartphones of one series differ from each other with the color of the case, the frequency of the processor and the resolution of the camera only on paper. In real life, the difference between Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S9 is so small that it is difficult to distinguish even under a microscope. In advertising we are talking about epochable innovations, but in practice it turns out in place.
Is it a dead end? No, just the ceiling.
The problem is that manufacturers have exhausted the limit of fresh ideas. Development is only on the path of quantitative increase in the technical characteristics, which can not withdraw the mobile industry to the next level. We got to the point when the manufacturers of smartphones still want to receive a big profit, but do not have any new ideas for this. The only thing that remains is to invent anyone who is not necessary features and advertising, advertising, advertising.
Here is a list of typical tasks for a modern mobile phone:
calls;
sending and receiving messages;
Internet access;
play music;
photo and video;
Email;
Clock, alarm clock, calculator, voice recorder and other little things.
I forgot something? Well, then add to the list those items that are important for you. And after that, honestly answer two questions:
Does your smartphone with the following tasks do you?
What happens if you buy a more recent model? Just change one digit in the title or do you really get Great New Experience?
I dare to assume that if your smartphone is only a year or two, then you will not feel anything from his shift. No, of course, the moment of purchase, extracting from packages and removing all sorts of film brings a bunch of positive emotions. But then, when the storm goes, the emptiness will come. Nothing new. It is better to travel to this money on a trip. And put the purchase of new toys until the next season.
