Does upgrading to a new iPhone every 2 years still make sense? I don't think so - CNET

Image
The iPhone 13 Pro Max Patrick Holland/CNET We all know the drill. As Apple's annual fall event draws close , many of us start to check in on our previous two-year smartphone plan to see if we're eligible for an upgrade in September. After all, the newest phone is only the newest phone for so long. Even for discerning shoppers like me, it takes serious willpower to resist the lure of a purple iPhone  or 1TB of storage . Mobile carriers have long persuaded many of us to upgrade our smartphones every two years, offering two-year contracts linked to free or low-cost phone upgrades to keep the two-year upgrade cycle going. That feeling of ponying up just a couple hundred dollars (or less) for the newest, fanciest phone available has helped perpetuate the rise of the de facto two-year phone upgrade. Case in point: AT&...

Cellphone holsters: why dads love them, and why they could come back - Vox.com

Image
The Motorola Razr hit the market in the summer of 2004, and immediately it was a very big deal. This was the first cellphone whose fashionability was its main selling point, an object that was worth shelling out markedly more money for simply because it looked cool. The strategy worked: Motorola went on to sell more than 100 million of them, and the Razr became the best-selling flip phone in history. The Razr succeeded because it was sleek, which is to say that it was skinny, which is also to say that it could fit in your pants pocket without being extremely uncomfortable. While this was good news for both Motorola and people who dislike giant bricks that press against their bellies when they sit down, it was not good for the cellphone holster industry. Using the term "cellphone holster industry" here, however, implies that there is one, which itself would be kind of a lie. Where did cellphone holsters come from? Conceptually, they come from gun holsters, the apparatus gu...

The Nokia Brick Phone Is Coming Back, And All The Millennials Rejoice - Essence

Image
Photo by SSPL/Getty Images The early 2000s was an undefeated era, and everyone from music producers to fashionistas are showing their nostalgia for the early aughts. Nokia is getting in on the action with an upgraded version of one of its legendary brick phones. And yes, the snake game is back too. The Nokia 6310 phone first made its debut in 2001 (and the Nokia 3310 a year before that). We all remember how it lasted 50-11 days on one charge. For the 20th anniversary, Nokia is rolling out an updated version of the 6310 that will also sport an FM radio and a 21-day battery life (I wasn't exaggerating!) like its predecessor. However, the screen will be an inch larger than the original and the body has slimmed down. What's not returning? Being unable to call bae before 7:00 pm because those ...
