I'm in the same boat. I've still got an S10 from launch, although it's noticeably wearing down in performance now. I'll wait to the holiday season to see if I can get a deal on a new Samsung. At that point I'll have used the s10 for almost 5 years. Used to get a new phone every other year but that's not needed or wanted now.

Hell, I've had a £100 phone for 3 years already and it's absolutely fine. I've noticed a little battery degregation but it still lasts a whole day. Plus a cheap batter change will make it last year's more. I can't understand why anyone would still sing those contracts for a new phone every 2 years.
