Why are users increasingly lazy to upgrade to new smartphones?
Long software support periods make many people no longer interested in upgrading to new smartphones, creating a trend of long-term use, easy repair, and resale.

Many phone companies now support software updates for up to 7 years, making users keep their phones longer. Nothing has just announced that the Phone (3) will have software update times comparable to the high-end iPhone and Galaxy S.
Smartphone upgrade cycles have now increased to an average of 3.5 years globally. The common reason is not to protect the environment but to… save money.
High-end phones get updates longer, hold their value well, and can be resold easily. The ease of repair also fuels the trend of refurbishing and reusing smartphones. Samsung, Apple and the EU are all pushing for durable, repairable, environmentally friendly phone designs.
Users can now consider buying a used flagship phone instead of buying a new low-end phone. Dear readers, please watch more videos : Funny advertisement about Apple Intelligence Writing Tools
