Legitimately curious, why did you buy 3 flagship phones in the last two years? Do you buy 1.5 phones per year on average? What were the last like, 6 phones you bought? Sorry for the twenty questions but your post left me with a lot of questions lol. I see posts online all the time about people with tons of modern phones and I've always wondered.

That's my smartphone history; I'd be super curious to know what yours looks like.
It's a hobby for some people.
A fellow hobbyist here. I use a Pixel 7 alongside a flip 4 and an iPhone 12 mini.
What does your last decade of phone history look like? Which of those three is your daily driver? Do you pay for plans for all 3 at the same time?
I've used an iPhone 6 prior to Pixel 1,2,3,6, and 7 with the Samsung Flip and iPhone 12 mini in between. My country's mobile plans are cheap, so I have 2 lines with 45 GB of data on each of them. My current daily is a Pixel because of its camera and smarts

I miss notification LEDs most of all...
I miss IR blasters and slide-out physical keyboards. I would unironically trade a foldable screen for a sliding keyboard.
Here's mine, for some more fun -
Sony Xperia X1 (the very first Xperia - it had a stylus, keyboard and ran Windows Phone 5.1 (the original pre-iPhone OS, not the later metro style OS)
HTC Desire (the og desire! and my first Android phone. I rooted this and flashed it on a weekly basis. Miss those days...)
Nexus 4
Moto E (I dropped my 4 and figured I'd try a super cheap phone, worked surprisingly well)
Sony Xperia X3 Compact
Nexus 5X
Pixel 3
Pixel 7
I miss small phones so much...
