If it ain't broke, don't replace it. When was the last time you got a new phone? For me, it was last week. Before that, it might have been three weeks ago. Before that, well, you get the idea — I have some of the best Android phones from the last few years floating around my apartment. In some cases, I have multiple generations of the same lineup, like Google Pixel devices back to the Pixel 6 series and iPhones back to the iPhone 12, and I’ve used them all. It’s a fortunate position to be in, but also one that shows how little tends to change from one year to the next. As someone whose SIM is always on the move, here’s how often I think you should get a new phone.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

Clearly, things have changed....

Midrange phones are more competitive than ever, and their performance and battery life make us wonder why we spend $1,000+ on flagship devices. Phones under $500 used to include drab displays, awful build quality, and hardly any software support. But recently, even budget devices have featured OLED displays and years of software support. With so many high-quality options close in price, even a small discount can make a big difference.
