The Joy of Missing Out

Yeah the camera gets used a lot. The other things are sort of unexpected side benefits, the main goal was having a phone with a good camera that can email pictures so I could throw away my SD card reader.

When I made the decision to jump from dumb to smart, I did tons of research trying to find a phone that had a good camera and was cheap. After much contemplation, I bit my lip and shelled out far too much for a used Iphone. Because in addition to having a good camera, I wanted something easy to use, something that I could get repaired if it broke, something that would retain its resale value. Which meant paying the Apple tax. Fortunately the used market for idevices, while overpriced compared to any other brand of used phones, is a lot more affordable than buying a new phone.
