Why Getting the Most Recent iPhone is Absolutely Worthless
Why do you need the iPhone Infinity?
I hate the new iPhone season. When the announcement comes out for the latest and greatest iPhone event, I feel a tornado of emotions. Here’s why.
I have never had a brand new, current-generation iPhone. My first iPhone was the iPhone 4. I got this when the iPhone 6 came out. And when I finally upgraded, it was to a “6” just after the iPhone 8 came out.
Aside from the phone no longer being an old piece of junk, what does it get me to upgrade to the latest and greatest? Well, we are out hundreds of dollars. And I can get the latest time-wasting apps on my phone, but is it worth it?
What’s the Problem?
Listen, my problem isn’t with people who do upgrade to the top of the line. And it's not even with Apple as a whole.
My problem is with the marketing standard that says I NEED to have the latest and greatest iPhone. Otherwise, I’m just falling behind in the times.
Anybody can say:
