You really don't need a high end phone that badly. Trust me.

Today a smartphone costs more than a regular bike. And to top that it barely lasts anywhere between 2-5 years before it begins to degrade.

I don't think it's wise to spend your money buying smartphones. It's actually a great time to buy the low-mid range phones since they're not doing anything different than the high end phones do anyway.

Camera quality you say? Most people are happy with the "selfie" decadance. You think an 8MP pic is that bad compared to 10MP?

Use an old phone for a while. Invest the money into something else. You'll do much better.
