Besides design, specs and street cred, there is another important variable to explore while choosing a phone – value retention. What good is the snazzy flagship you paid close to a grand for, if a few months after its introduction it would have become an upper midranger, and, more importantly, lost a whole midrange price tag in value?

After all, 2017 was the year when average phone prices hit a record, and there’s never been such a price jump year-on-year, thanks mainly to “1K” phones like the iPhone X and Note 8, but also to other high-ends that saw a price boost compared to their predecessors, and the trend seems likely to continue this year.
