How much should you spend on a smartphone

In the current spectrum, how much should one spend to get the best value? I know everyone has a different taste and budget. But analysing the current trend of smartphone culture could give a bit of insight into spending wisely.

The issue is that currently the 1-2 years used flagships have a lot of issues

  • Samsung S21 and S22 have bad batteries, not even talking about Exynos if OP is based in the EU
  • Pixel 6 and 7 have bad connectivity and also some battery issues
  • OnePlus aren't what they used to be

That reduces quite a lot what should be the main source of used flagships

P7 only has connectivity issues in third world countries like the US. It's not a problem in Europe

Well, you never know where people are, so it's safe to warn a 300 millions country
