ROG Phone I usually buy the most premium model (Ultimate) + all the accessories + sometimes extras.

Neither ideally. I only own a Switch and my phone is pretty dated.

i kinda do believe most phone makers when they say that making a cell phone is super expensive. They do have a pretty good gps and camera in most phones and before you had to buy those separate and they weren't cheap. And oh yeah an mp3 player too

I haven't bought the 7 yet and it's been long enough that I think I'll wait for the 8.

These are the rumored specs & price of the 8

It is and it's totally worth it especially if you spend a lot of time on your phone. I've got literally 50 tabs open on my phone browser as I type this and it's still lightning fast.

Yeah tons. The controller accessory for this phone basically turns it into a smaller, more powerful Nintendo Switch.

I usually spend around CHF 1000-1200 for a new phone every 4 years. They're worth it for me.

Consoles are cheaper by default. If they were more expensive, I'd still buy them even if they would cost about the same.

it's easier to justify buying a good phone than a similarly expensive console.

it's something you use and interact with everyday.
