minus-squareSeefra 1@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months ago $550.00 Fast, performant and cheap It may be fast and performant, but it’s not cheap. If I had $550.00 to spend on a new device I would spend it on a good and powerful computer, for video editing and 3D modeling, not on a phone. For comparison an used business laptop, costs about $120, an israeli spyware loaded phone costs about $150. Going from that to $550 is a big jump, and not affordable for most internet users.
