It's time I got a new iPhone. I've currently got an iPhone 11, which is nearly 5 years old now. The new iPhones have better cameras, better performance and, perhaps most significantly, use 5G - something which the iPhone 11 does not. The problem is - it's so expensive. An unlocked iPhone 15 is going to cost me at least $830. Plus tax. Plus all the accessories you need to get (like a case). It all adds up, and it's ridiculous. Do I take the chance on paying less for a refurbished phone? I probably won't risk it. I believe that because I, theoretically, use my phone for work then my company will pay me something like $200 towards a phone. But naturally this little benefit was impossible to find on the company internal website - I guess they don't want to freely advertise it. I need to do more digging.
Be smart.
ReplyDeleteYou've already identifed that over time the differential between old & new grows - BUT....with Apple each annual release shows (of late) modest improvement.
Get a 13 now, or a 1 when 16 gets launches.
I bought Sarah (who was on a XR) a 13 in Feb - she's well happy.
I've got a 12, which I'm OK with at present, but I'll upgrade when 17 hits to a 14/15
Belated happy birthday BTW.
ReplyDeleteI was late congratulating your sister, so I'll be late congratulating you.
