Every gadget that one sees around is upgraded. And there are many who rush to get their gadgets upgraded whether they need those upgrades or not. Perhaps to be one up or whatever.
I am still with my feature phones and miss nothing I have no interest in downloading Apps that one can if one owns a smart phone. I do not like Apps.
I see there are mobiles with four cameras. Who would want that many unless one is a professional photographer!!
Are you gizmo crazy? Which is your latest gadget?

@allknowing I always struggle with finances and simply cannot add a subscription and other things to a mobile phone. I do my phoning and messaging for free over the net with TextNow,

As long as our needs are met there is no need to upgrade

I really don't care, I only replace it when its no longer working. My phone's a Samsung 2016 model haha 
and my Ipad's old too, Ipad mini 2. I don't mind upgrading if its something necessary or needed for work like my PC and laptop.

Upgrades should be need based and not to compete with the Joneses. What can one do with a mobile with 4 cameras I say?
