He's literally correct though... 13-15 was barely any improvement

Great price even though this one is starting to get old. The crazy part is that this is mostly better than the 16e as far as the features like MagSafe, cameras, Dynamic Island and such.

The 16e is better as far as performance if I am not mistaken AND it gets longer iOS support.

Edit: no Dynamic Island for those two. 16e gets USB C port, less weight and better battery life.

Dynamic Island is only on iPhone 14 Pro or iPhone 15 and above

Aw man. Ok I guess the 13 is less desirable? To each to own

i havent seen any better deal in a while. i always buy older phones for cheaper, and cheap phone plans. Right now I have a SE 3rd gen i got for $150 from walmart few years ago.

Now I want a slightly better phone which also has more lenses (mainly the 0.5x) for filming/vlogging. Think I will get this. The only better deal I've seen was when Total had it for free with a 3-month plan ($165) but that deal is butchered now.

iPhone 13 uses same chip as iPhone 14 basically and actually gets better battery life than the 14. It also doesn't have some of the known issues that the 14 has with its camera. It's really one of the last good phones apple made and it's going to stand the test of time better than something like a 12. Also this is almost identical performance wise of the iPhone 15. So basically. If you want a real performance bump, get the iPhone 17. But the 13-15 are virtually the same.

Just watched a Canadian youtuber that went to Taiwan and was using the 16e during his visit as part of the trial. And the 5G wasn't working well. Not sure bc of the C1 modem.
But yeah the sim card seems like a big deal for people unlocking these phones.

Note the new "liquid jeez" theme Apple introduced in their latest OS slows down this phone quite a bit.

rebranding to tracfone should unlock it for cheaper.
