i buy used phones 1 or 2 generations behind.. but i'm happy with my galaxy s3, so i'll hold on to that phone for at least 1 more year. the new tech doesn't really bring much improvements, so that's the point?

Same here.  I have an s3 and it suits all my needs except I would like a bigger screen.  So I'll probably end up getting a new Note 5 and gifting my S3 to family.  I should have got the Note II back then...

My latest one got washed in the laundry by mistake. It's currently dumped in crystal cat litter haha. I read online that cat litter made out of silica (διοξείδιο του πυριτίου) could effectively absorb the moisture that was traped in my screen. It seems to be working so far. So yeah, I only change phones every time my older one dies. I'm currently using my previous device that I thankfully didn't get rid off.

I was not scheduled when I have to replace the phone: D

but if I want to replace it, I had to wait a lot of money to buy a new mobile phone output with very good spec and my love Smiley

but in today to buy a gadget will never be satisfied, because more and more recent output is more tempting Smiley

Probably every 2 to 3 years. Like to buy a nice phone and stick with it for awhile.

Don't even mind the two year contracts because of that

Not often really.
Probably 3-4 years in average per phone.
In fact, I change phone just when I have no other choice, because phone is broken Smiley

Pretty much I have the same approach. I only change phone when the old one is broken or it is too old. By old I mean like 5 years+. Other than than I don't use smartphone and I have phone without operating system. I don't understand people who needs to buy every generation of Samsung/iPhone. That is ridiculous in my eyes.
