I'm SHOCKED to find that technology is built around planned obsolescence. SHOCKED!

Yep. This is not news. If you didn't know this, you probably weren't paying attention.

Tech advances so quickly that everybody buys new phones every couple years regardless, and I really dont see why their explanation doesnt have merit

Im using a 6 plus and dont notice any slowdown or performance issues at all, of course newer phones are going to be optimized for the latest software updates though, that is how shit works

My oneplus2 is definitely starting to show it's age, and I certainly wouldn't turn down the most recent model as a gift, but this phone still does what I need it to.

Mine doesn't, but perhaps that's part of buying from a quality manufacturer.
