I honestly only buy a new phone when my current one breaks or runs out of software support. I bought my current phone (Google Pixel 8) because my old (Moto G Power) ran out of security updates, and this one has 7 years of support.
If I could have switched to a FOSS OS for longer support, I'd still be using my old phone. If I could replace parts to something that gets software updates, I would have. But no, it's ewaste because it's no longer getting support.
If someone makes a forever phone, I'll buy it.
