We have had options to upgrade every 2 years as a business perk. So one new iPhone every other year going into our stable, with folk using this set of phones for variable times.
The exception was getting an 'upgrade' deal during COVID for an iPhone 12Pro at AT&T. What a hassle! Took hours and >10 phone calls for them to 'find' and then 'credit' the iPhone6+ we sent in. Anyway...
Right now, daughter has a beloved iPhone8+. She loves the touchID. So she will keep it until it dies. We will likely replace the battery this year.
Spouse has said iPhone12Pro. It works fine. I doubt she will upgrade unless she physically breaks it.
In general, our iPhone stable will deploy for 3-5 years, but sometimes with different 'owners'.
