It’s getting ridiculous that you need to replace a smart phone every 3-4 years when the technological improvements are minimal.

Well, we used to call that ‘a saturated marketplace’.
If you at Apple still think you can sell more ice to more eskimos, then go for it!

Maybe prices will come down with reduced demand?

I replace my TVs more often than I replace my smartphone, and in fact, I only replace my smartphone when it gets a cracked screen, which has been only twice in the last 8 years.

The tech for smartphones hasn’t really brought anything new that people need. It’s all phoning and text-messaging and social media and photos and videos, which can all be handled by the tech that’s been around for about 10 years now.
