Why not? While it does seem wasteful that people actually get a new phone every year, I want to see a new model every year so I can decide when it’s sufficiently improved over the one I currently own, or I may want to decide on an older model so want there to be one with whatever I feel is sufficient. Having new models every year gives us all more choice, not just anyone who may replace theirs that frequently
Edit: I really want an Apple TV, but there are constant technology changes so buying the current two year old design seems like a bad idea. It may still work but Why would I invest in a truncated future? If there were a 2024 version, I would already have it. Maybe even if there was a 2023 version
I get your point. But we’d probably adjust if there’s less releases, I think. More choice might not be better when it comes to the planet and it’s natural resources. And we’re now at a point where phones barely change when compared to the year before.
If there’s a new iPhone every two years, you can still decide when the improvements justify upgrading for you.

I’ve got a first gen ATV4K and the newer one - the only difference I’ve noticed over the years is the remote. We bought a current gen remote for the old one and it’s the same experience. Just pull the trigger, if you’ve got Apple devices it’s a great streaming box. ATV4K is not where the constant technology changes are happening.
