When everyone eventually switched to a smartphone (2013), we were swapping upgrade eligibility so two people got the latest model, the other two got the 1-year old iPhones and two phones were retired. Sometimes, the wait for those on the 1+ year old device became excruciating (battery getting fully discharged after one phone call, etc).
Gotta say, despite the pain in the wallet, upgrading iPhones (and even Android to a certain extent) is so much easier than upgrading feature phones. My mom had 500 contacts on her cellphones and given SIM cards were limited to like 100 contacts or something, getting those transferred in batches (or via manual entry) to her new phone was a major pain. Of course, being the resident techie, I'm the one tasked with that job.
