You'd think. Maybe get 15 mo, like with the iPhone 4.
It's like that because HTC, Motorola, and Samsung are on different release schedules, and then there's usually an end of the year Nexus phone. Now LG is getting into the mix with its Optimus G. Now Samsung has two main lines, the Galaxy S line and the Galaxy Note line. Plus each OEM will put out a spec bumped iteration here and there. So actually, there's a new product launched monthly. But as far as a truly new iteration, it's a year. For each OEM, that is.Originally Posted by TonyD /t/323457/iphone-user-goes-to-the-samsung-galaxy-s3/150#post_3977069
I saw that on another site and also saw that the US version won't appear until summer next year.
Isn't this what the android phones are anyway? A new one every 5-8 months
I don't sell my phones, but it looks like the going rate for a used Galaxy S3 is still around $500. So it still has value.

Do you think that is a good thing? Again I don't have an Android phone so I'm genuinely curious. As an Android phone user is it frustrating to see newer better phones come out literally a month after you have purchased yours or is it just a simple cost of doing business kind of thing where you realize up front that it is going to happen repeatedly and prepare yourself to not care? Again I know text is hard to interpret so read this as me not being a dick, I'm asking a legit question.
Apple's publicly released numbers counter your belief.Hanson said:Man, you are 100% correct. I forget which thread I said it, but most people don't upgrade their OS.
