Off-topic but I wonder how much cheaper mobile phones would be if the manufacturers did not have to come up with a hardware design update every year or so? What if mobile phones were built to last longer, which would reduce the cost per phone due to high volume? Of course, I am not suggesting this is good for business but as a mere thought experiment.
