The tough part will be with phones. More companies are adding 5g which inherently raises the price. But, you are also future proofing yourself for the time if/when 5g does become available within your area.
The issue with getting a 5g phone right now (especially android) is that the phone OS may not be supported in 5 years when 5g readily becomes available.
If you can swing $2,000 for the Z Fold 2. Do it. it's fun to hold the future in your hand. But i wouldn't get the phone strictly for 5g. You can pick up a pixel and spend the other $1,500 on cigars.
The other option you can do with your s10 is root it and load a custom rom onto it. lineage OS is readily available for the device and will keep is running smooth for years to come.

I'm in the average person category. I bought a pixel over the summer for 400$ and received a mc debit card with 150$ on it. I use my phone for talk, text and internet... all the other apps on my phone are useless to me. I wouldnt know the diff bw 5g and 3g. LOL
I miss my old Motorola RAZR flip phone.
