This exactly. If you're spending anywhere from €250 - €350 on a phone and this is a big spend, you'll want to keep the device for longer and have a bigger screen because it seems like you're getting the most value for money.
The majority of phones in the world which make up the bulk of sales are exactly these types of phones: Samsung A07, Xiaomi, Realme, TCL, Motorola etc
Which is why I keep saying about Flip phones that if the OEM wants to see more sales, they need to price them in this range. Not at 1000 bucks+. At that price it will remain a niche product for the few.
