I will say on the phone side though I was always a mid-tier phone buyer. Always owned my phone outright. Last upgrade my carrier (T-Mobile) hooked me with a deal. Flagship phone for $100. Rate didn't increase, and it was cheaper than a mid tier.

Motorola phones are still really good for what you get.

Even got a headphone jack~

I like to get xaoimi phones. High tier specs for mid tier prices.

my personal peeve with Xiaomi phones: their software support isn't as good or consistent as Google or Samsung (3-4 years of Android updates + 5 years of monthly security updates).
