Oneplus 8T. The previous one was a Galaxy S8. Both got them almost free, the only good perk of my job.

Still rocking an iPhone 11 Pro. To tell you the truth, the thing most making me not want to upgrade is all of the work-related apps I have tied to it with private keys (such as a two factor auth app used for authenticating to Azure, etc). Makes migrating to a new device a pain.

I imported a Xiaomi mi 11 ultra before that I had a Huawei P40 pro. It's amazing how Americans are brainwashed into believing Samsung and Apple have the best cameraphones on the market.

Currently a Samsung Galaxy Note 9. I'll be eyeing up a Samsung Galaxy Note 22 Ultra at some point, but not for £1200.

iPhone X. I've replaced the battery this year as the old one wasn't lasting too long anymore but otherwise still works.
I don't play many, but I've noticed the odd game gets some made frame dips these days.
Probably upgrade next time something catches my fancy, just hasn't happened yet.

I had a 6S before as well. I think it was iOS 9 or 10 that really killed it. I went from one charge a day to several. Tried replacing the battery with the discount they offered, but didn't matter. I got an XS max a few years ago. The camera quality is a large improvement, but I'm super scared to upgrade the firmware after what happened before, so I always wait a month or so to see all the complaints first. Also, itunes no longer backs up the entire firmware, which is complete bullshit

Note 8. Though I'd love a new phone, my Note 8 is holding up pretty well. Main reasons whats stopping me is lack of headphone jack and SD card. I'd probably can do without a headphone jack, but I really dont want to give up extra storage. I have pics and videos from the very first android phone, the G1 from HTC

OnePlus 6t. I bought a OnePlus 8 for ~$200 on Slickdeals last year but haven't opened it since this one still functions like new
I saw someone make fun of someone's apple phone yesterday because it had a button? it made me cringe because apple users in my eyes are tech inept

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I have the Oneplus 8 Pro with Lineage OS. Upgraded from the Oneplus 5T which was a pretty big leap.
Bought this phone in Sept 2020 so I've had it for almost two years now. I suspect I'll get another two years out of it, maybe more! The phone just runs so damn smooth on Lineage, and I don't use any Google services at all (no play store, no gmail, no google maps, etc.) and that really cuts down on the bloat. The battery is great and can easily go 3-4 days without a charge. It's just a damn nice phone, and I suspect that when I upgrade it'll be because they released a newer model with better specs / better battery life and not because this one will wear out.

Redmi Note 5 I think. Many years old but I can't spend money on a new phone right now.

I’m still rocking an iPhone 6S. I’ll update when I really need to, but since I’m working remotely, no need to. The battery on it sucks and the indicator is unreliable. Apple is at it again with trying users to force update to new models.

Company phone. iphone 7 or 8. It's ok. Still a taxable benefit. So the company adds like $600/yr to my income tax slip which I got to pay. So it probably costs me $200-250/yr. I think that's how it works. Unlimited everything. Nobody gives a shit if I download apps or check porn sites on it.
I still think my old company Blackberry with tactile keyboard is better for typing. I dont even have big fingers but the touch controls are shit for texting. Then again, maybe if I had a bigger iphone it would solve this problem.

got the iPhone 13 last week. jumped from a years old basic motorola android phone that I got for free. not new to Apple products tho been on a MacBook for years. just didn't care about phones as long as it could make calls and text I was good. buuuut I know these phones have a long battery life and good performance and I have a lot of movies that I purchased through Apple so I just thought why not and got it. probably would've been fine with another free, basic android phone though.

Sony Xperia 1ii since August 2020. Will potentially consider upgrading when maybe a newer, less-insane priced one is announced. The Pro and Pro-I are more aimed at enthusiasts or industry people rather than the average user, so I'm awaiting an announcement on the Xperia 1iv if it ever hits.
Otherwise, the 1ii is still working just fine. It's also built like a tank and I upgraded to Android 12 a few months ago on it. Plenty of storage and a beautiful screen with a slightly taller profile than most other current phones, so it stands out in that aspect.

iPhone XR. Been using it for 3,5 years and it's still great. Camera would be the only reason for me to upgrade someday.

Galaxy A52 and I get my phone from work so not much choice, just happy I don't have to spend my own money on mobile phones since I think they all kinda suck.

iPhone 13 pro max.
Wife and I both got the same phone back at launch in Sep 2021. It’s been far and away the best phone we have ever owned. The battery life is as good as everyone has made it out to be and it takes wonderful photos. We originally purchased new phones since our first born was due in Jan. We are glad we made the upgrade since both old phones were only 64 gig models (went with both 256).

iPhone 12 Pro Max. got it at launch so about 17 months ago.
quite happy with it. no problems with it and works perfectly. i've dropped it more than a few times but i have a screen protector/case so the phone itself is still in good condition. one time it dropped out my pocket getting into my car and it was sitting out in the rain for 3 hours. the charging port had some water in it but it still works. also i was lucky i didn't reverse over it or anyone else used the parking space! and of course that nobody saw the phone on the ground and ran off with it!
i was planning to upgrade after 2 years so that would've been in time for the iPhone 14 but i'm still happy with battery life so i'll keep it another year or two
i try not to charge the battery above 80% unless i think i need it and i don't usually let it go below 15-20%. after 17 months the battery health has only gone down to 97%
