Yeah, for me it always helped to think about what I was actually doing with my phone and I quickly realized that I really have not mich use for the most expensive phones. A camera like I'd get on the new iPhone for example would be nice but that alone isn't worth paying almost 1k more. And aside from camera I don't think there's much difference for the average user when you compare a high end and a low to mid-range phone.

I agree $1k for a phone seems crazy but if people are willing to spend it, who am I to judge? It is kind of great that midrange phones have become so good.
