Those who use flagship phones, do you actually utilize its full processing power? If not, what was the reason you spent that instead of a mid range phone (or even a budget phone)? (piefed.ca)

so yeah... idk why most people buy flagships phones only to open tiktok, facebook, etc.

I mean does anyone actually game on their phone regularly? Like an entire pubg mobile gaming session on it?

Or is it primarily a camera thing.

I have owned phones of all classes over the years. I have carried 2 phones for the past decade.

The only time I have used a phones full processing power is some games on a budget phone. Most of the time the extra power has no noticable difference.

For a long time there was a significant difference in the camera. Flagship phones had noticably superior camera systems. Today, mid-range phones tend to have as good or even superior cameras to flagships.

I used to buy one flagship (work) and one budget phone (personal). The contrast between the two phones used to be a lot smaller.

The last few years however I started purchasing only mid-range phones. The budget phones have fallen in overall quality and features. The flagship phones are massively overpriced for what they do. I have found that the midrange segment provides acceptable build quality and performance.
