If you have 512gb of storage I think you likely paid more for your phone than I have for my last 3 phones combined going back 5 or 6 years.

Decent wired earbuds are $20. Bluetooth earbuds in that price range are terrible and uncomfortable.

Some of us can't or won't spend lots of money on disposable tech like phones.

You consider yourself a power user, I'm just a guy who needs a phone to phone, text and do a few internet tasks like casual games for work downtime.

I don't have anything against people who like having the latest and greatest tech but I don't have that urge or see the need in some cases. I generally don't like being pushed into spending more money with no appreciable gain in functionality.
