Your phone was never meant to last forever. From battery life depleting with time to diminishing updates, processing power, and speculations about purposely slowing down older phones. No matter the reason, eventually, you'll want a new phone. When you do, you might want to maximize the value of your phone rather than just keep it somewhere to gather dust.

This is to say that you should give some thought to the resell value of a phone before buying it. Granted, no smartphone is a good investment because you lose money the moment it is used, but you can still maximize its value by thinking of whether you'll be able to get money back when trading it in or reselling it. For instance, newer phones are worth more when trading in than older phones. When choosing whether to get an iPhone or a Samsung Galaxy, you might want to think about which brand will give you more money back when you trade it for a new phone in the future.
