Simple Cost vs Benefit Issue

I used to upgrade my phone every 2 years, but now, if I want to keep up with the latest and greatest, that upgrade is going to cost me over $1000. I’d rather upgrade my computer every few years and get more bang for my buck. Or spend it on upgrading my TVs so I can watch my movies on 4K 70” display. Yeah, the processing power of a phone is pretty amazing these days, but I don’t want to do my analytical processing or photo management on a phone screen.
