I cannot imagine spending $1000 on a phone in general. And even more so, I cannot imagine spending $1000 on a phone I cannot even sideload something like Newpipe on.
Since you are seemingly wealthy enough for this - maybe Pixel with GrapheneOS would be a right fit for you? Pixels also have longer support now (although I still think it’s very short, so I’d likely have to switch to Lineage afterwards).
Very few people spend $1000 outright on a phone, you know that right? Every major mobile provider has some sort of installment plan for purchasing a new device. Apple offers one directly as well.
I mean, I agree with you? I wasn’t saying it’s a moral plan just explaining to the parent poster that people don’t need to be exorbitantly wealthy to “buy” a new device

Wealthy? Look at flagship phone sales numbers every year. Broke ass people have expensive gadgets all the time. Get a life.

That’s still spending $1000 on a phone, even more if you pay interest.
Using fomo and marketinp to force people into debt for a phone. Definitely the moral and sensible choice.

It’s just baked into your bill at that point.
