How often do you buy a new phone?

How long do you keep your phone before buying a new one? It is based on this article that especially Apple fanboys, buy a new phone every year when the new one comes out.

When I developed for Android: every two or three years or so: HTC Magic Nexus One (one year later, but was gifted it by Google) Nexus 4 Nexus 6 pro

At that point I changed jobs and had to pay for my own phone. Also, became a parent. Samsung Galaxy s8 - cracked the screen after half a year in a child-related incident. Kept going for a while. Samsung galaxy s10 - cracked the screen quite fast in a sleep deprivation related incident. Google Pixel Pro 7 (At this point I started wrapping my phone in mous. Samsung Galaxy S26 ultra (I won this in a competition, but didn’t need to replace my old phone)

So… I never felt like I needed to chase new features after I stopped working with android development, and really, the wild development rush pretty much stopped, but I kept changing phones because I kept breaking them all of a sudden.
