Smartphones have drastically changed/altered/ updated the course of human civilization. The start from the invention of transistors to integrated circuits to quantum computing has been the result of market forces(consumers push for innovation) . Especially companies as Apple, Samsung and others have hugely invested in r&d to earn more profits and acquire greater market-share; expand business(all mgmt lingo) but analyzing all this holistically , they also have contributed a lot ; pushed the innovation to greatest level in circuit and computing technology. So buying an newer high end models from apple or samsung not only you have a precious thing to show to your friends but you also would have contributed to making a more advanced technological future as you have seen in sci-fi movies as a kid. So next time don't think just buy the latest releases only if you can afford it. And the next thing you know maybe our gran-children will really have flying cars and travel inter-galactic.
