How true is this for that 44% currently using iphones?<p>Iphones stay good enough for at least 2-3 years, if you&#x27;re not picky. $600&#x2F;3 = $200. $17 per month, 0.56 cents per day.<p>It&#x27;s not nothing. But it is nothing compared to what the iphone class spends on, say, coffee. There is the one-off hit from paying the $600 all at once, but credit cards reduce that pain somewhat.<p>Meanwhile, you&#x27;re using the phone <i>every day</i>. If you have the money, you probably want a phone you really like, not one that is just good enough.<p>Don&#x27;t get me wrong, I think these new &quot;good enough&quot; phones are going to capture a large part of the market. I just am not sure it will be the iphone part. Past a certain income level, $540 savings for years of daily annoyance isn&#x27;t really a compelling saving.
