Hey everyone! I’m looking to buy an iPhone but I’m not sure which model I should go for. I definitely want to go for an older model (and refurbed) for the cheaper price, so I’ve been looking at the 11 or 12.

I also don’t care too much for having the state of the art features on my phone. For reference, I’m currently using a Samsung A50, and have been doing so for years, so almost anything would be an upgrade for me. In that sense, I also don’t think I’d care too much about having an OLED or LCD screen.

I basically just want a phone that can take nice pictures and isn’t slow. At the same time, I do plan on using this phone for multiple years again, so I don’t want to overlook anything and regret it later.

I’m also not opposed to going for one of the Pro models. I’m just not sure how big a difference there is between these four models (iPhone 11 vs. 11 Pro vs. iPhone 12 vs. 12 Pro) models are.

Does anyone have some advice for me?

    Go for a 13 if you can afford it. It’s about 500USD or so now from what I’ve seen. 12 is a lot better than 11. I bought an 11 pro refurbished from Amazon for about 430 in 2022 April. I traded it in for 90 at the Apple Store for my 15 pro. Get the latest you can afford within reason. 15 is great Ofc but if you don’t care about a new one and are okay with refurbished 12 or 13 easy Good luck mate!!
