I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren't worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

My super phone is excellent and does everything I expect it to. My roommates's cheap phone somehow has worse versions of each app we install. He had to find something very specific to cast to the Roku. The type c to HDMI adapter does nothing with his phone. For some reason a mech game we play straight up wouldn't let him use certain core features until half a year later. Also for some damn reason, texts barely make it through to his phone. I gotta hit 'switch to SMS/MMS' all the time after sending him something that fails to send.
