Curious to see how much the majority of people here spend, especially with flagships prices getting out of hand in the last few years.

    Whenever a refurbished Pixel phone is about $3-400and I’m 2+ generations behind and want something new. I rock no case too, bare naked phones, so if I drop it and it’s screen cracks, I’m not out much $. Been my plan since the Nexus line.

      If you shop on the Google store, put a phone in your cart and wait a week they send out ridiculous discount coupons. I got a 7 pro for 400 just after the 8 was released. Brand new, no trade in required.

      Normally cases and screen protectors aren’t worth it but I have to say depending on the phone, adding some sort of ridge to the border of the screen can essentially keep it from cracking in almost all scenarios.

      I do see a lot of worthless cases and wasted money though for sure.
