Take a look at a comparison of the iphone 17 and the iphone 12

https://www.apple.com/iphone/compare/?modelList=iphone-17,ip...

Is the newer model better? Sure!

But it had 4k 60fps video, optical image stabilisation, a "super retina display" etc five generations ago. The specs have kept improving, but it's not a quantum leap in performance.

The same applies at the low end, the grand parent comment even agrees.

You buy a new phone every two years, it comes with a camera, a cpu, a gpu, a host of sensors. Same as phones did two years ago, and ten years before that.

I don’t use my current smart phone in any ways that are different to the iMate PDA2K I had twenty years so.
