My 14-year-old son wants an iPhone for Christmas. Do I need to get him the 15 or will an older version be okay?
He’s only ever had Samsung phones, and not very good ones at that.
You can get an iPhone 11 for free if you go to metro by Tmobile
You don’t need to get him anything.
That said the iPhone has a much longer support cycle than any android, my iPhone 11 Pro Max I just replaced still gets updates. I’ll be giving that to my 14 y/o son for his birthday.
I say this as an iPhone user, I held onto my 11 until just recently and really only replaced it because I dropped a plate on it at the gym and cracked the screen.
The 13/14 will probably be noticeably better than the Samsung he’s had and if he wants an iPhone it’s probably for iMessage.
My 2 cents
14 years old? Give him an SE2 and he can enjoy that until he’s 18
Get an older one and for your son, I imagine a plus model might be the right choice.
Depends on how long he plans on keeping it before upgrading.
Anything iPhone 12 and up would be perfect
Buy the iPhone 13
hey dad, it’s me. thank you so much, a 15 pro max will do.

I had the 12 and jumped to the 15 (no plus, no pro)… and the difference is huge.
USB C. The back feels much more softer thanks to the frosted glass. Battery lasts all day. And the camera has a new 48mp sensor (rear cam). Photos are much more crispier. HDR is also improved much.
I’d recommend going for the 15 if you can. It’ll do him good for atleast the next 3-4 years just fine.
Was he bullied for not having blue bubbles?
