If you're upgrading your device every single time a new device comes along, you're just chasing clout and status. They rarely, if ever, have significant performance upgrades or new features that make sense in upgrading when your current device is perfectly fine.
To be fair the vast majority of people don't do that and just buy a new phone after a few years when theirs is becoming too old, has issues or lacks useful features
I just buy refurbished or "New-Old-Stock" 2-year-old flagship phones off ebay for $100 or so bucks every other year.
