Or simply that prices have become insane. Good phones used to be around 400, taking me a few days to think about it and say yes. Now they are beyond 1000, so I will do my best to avoid having to upgrade and go with custom ROMs again. In the meanwhile, we also lost exchangeable batteries, external SD cards, and microphone jack, and we gained more Google spyware and bloat.

Good phones are still $400. They just have this ridiculous tier now that is even higher

I had a Pixel 3a for years. It was a great phone and it was $350. Eventually it stopped getting updates :(
