13 mini is my favorite! As a disabled person I need a small yet powerful phone and this is exactly what I'm getting here. In fact the iPhone mini lineup is what forced me to switch from Android to Apple after almost a decade. It just proves that even if I'm in the minority and the mini sales are much lower from the standard version, there is a group of people who want and need a small flagship. I hope Apple won't forget about us in the near future. I'm sure my iPhone 13 mini can still last me a few years. Iphone 16 mini would be my dream come true! 🥰
@@MBZ1712 what do you mean? If you meant how long does the battery last on average it lasts me an entire day if I don't use it very intensively. The battery is very good for a phone this size.
I think the 13 mini is the best iphone currently. Hardcore users can buy the MagSafe Battery pack. Still cheaper than the regular 13 in this combination, and you get almost the same battery life as the 13 Pro in a much smaller and lighter phone. It takes a few days to get used to a smaller phone but once you do, you will never go back to a big heavy phone trust me.
@@BantuNiLo it’s still fine for me to watch on my own but if I want a bigger screen, I have my laptop so it’s not that big of a deal depending on your usage
I recently switched from IPhone 7 to IPhone 12 Pro. I skipped 11 series since it did not support 5G. And from where I live, having a 5G supporting phone is a must since I can’t make payments and do regular internet things. So, so far so good 12 Pro doing me well🎉
Practically speaking the iPhone 11 is a great affordable phone that will still get a few more years of updates If you’re the kind of person who doesn’t care about LCD Vs OLED or high resolution screens Its a great buy
@@MenOn13 Well if you're invested in the apple ecosystem, 11 pro max its not a bad option at all. It's even got HDR that the 11 and 11 pro max doesn't have.
Ive been using my iPhone 14 running ios 16.3.1 and the battery lasts 2 days . And big noticeable is the power of the camera for me it’s a big lift that’s why I’ve chosen base model iPhone 14.
The iPhone 13 is a Timeless phone right now, it's a great balance between Price, features and functionality. I have an iPhone 13, which I bought last year and I have to say it is great, the battery is amazing giving me almost a day worth with mid-high usage. The performance is great, the Camera's are great for me.
watching this on my regular iPhone 13 (256gb) and I gotta say that I made the right choice! Been using this iPhone for 11 months already and I have no complaints. Will be keeping this iPhone for 3-5 years before upgrading to the latest iPhone again in the future.
@@FcBestK it's not about surviving its about the usage experience quality which will degrade with Software gradually Even an iPhone 6 is surviving in 2023
I’m not gonna upgrade my iPhone 11 Pro Max until iOS 19 comes out. That’s what they say on the iPhone 11’s, that it will be supported until I os 19 or so. That’s what I heard so ya. Lol
I think the burn-in is not specifically from the "dynamic island" but because the screen is too bright. 2000 nits is ridiculously bright and most people probably set it to max brightness while outside which is understandable.
I recently bought iPhone 12 Pro and I would have bought iPhone 13 used, but LiDAR scanner is something I could use. Since I could use it for modelling and development purposes. I've been planning to save sometime by taking 3d models of props in my room and put them in my game, so I don't need to model them myself. That was a dealbreaker for me and made me go with 12 pro.
One thing I’ve learned, is to not go for the even numbered iPhones (such as the iPhone 12 series & the iPhone 14 series), as they tend to have many problems, such as the awful battery life that my mother has with the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Instead, go with the odd numbered iPhones (like the iPhone 11 series, the iPhone 13 series, & most likely the upcoming iPhone 15 series). Little to no problems whatsoever.
@@victorrashford758 I primarily use it as my daily driver, for personal and work use. I don’t access social media aside from YT and LinkedIn, I don’t play games but more on MS Teams chats and video calls from clients, battery lasts for about almost a day with 30% up remaining. Charging to 80% could only take like 30-45 mins, then it’ll slowly charge to 100% for about an hour if I’m not mistaken. So far so good Battery health sits at 100%. My phone is almost 1 year old.
@@victorrashford758I have a 13 mini for over a year (14 months) my battery health is at 98%. I don’t know exactly how long I can use it on a full battery, but it’s pretty decent. I absolutely love this phone. The performance is top notch. The screen and form factor are truly beautiful, by far the best iPhone I ever bought. I am planning to completely wire it out, because I have a feeling this one will last one hell of a long time.
I just bought the iPhone 13. The iPhone 14 was above my budget. And I did consider buying a refurbished 13 from Backmarket but thought $458 was too much to pay for a phone who might have had its battery or screen replaced. Furthermore I wouldn’t know how long it’s been used and how often. I decided to pay the extra money to get a new one straight from Apple.
@@jayvansickle7607 so my phone is acting a lot slower, the keys in the keyboard don’t press sometimes even after a screen replacement. The overall battery drains way way more quicker. And the camera doesn’t work as well, I have no idea why the camera one is but that’s really really strange. And also the phone has apps that I was previously using on the background while switching to the next app. So let’s say I’m on Snapchat, you Can see Snapchat in the background when switching over to Instagram. It’s very faint but you can definitely see it which is annoying after a while. Apps and screen definitely do not run as smooth either. It’s just getting a little worse every month
@@jayvansickle7607 It just all happened right after the 16 update. A lot of iPhone 11 users having the same problem too. If you look on upgrading from your iPhone 11 to iPhone 14 plus videos. A lot of comments saying what I’m saying
Last year, I was in dire need of a phone upgrade, the battery life of the 6s was just not cutting it anymore and I had to charge it multiple times a day. While it’s impressive how long support was available for it and how well it ran after many years, I was definitely looking for something that would last me throughout the day and be feature rich. I shelled out the money to buy the iPhone 13 Pro back in February, and while it’s kind of a bummer that my 128gb model doesn’t support the best of ProRes, it’s not a huge deal because I rarely try to make any beautiful pieces of videography anyway and the ProMotion just makes using the phone so much better. This phone is definitely going to last me a few years, I plan on replacing the battery once it surpasses the 80% health mark and use it until it’s time to upgrade again. I’m usually pretty minimal with the amount of storage I take up so I don’t see myself hitting 128gb anytime soon, but if I ever do, I’m sure whatever I choose to upgrade to won’t even have that as an option anymore.
The iPhone 13 Mini is one of the best iPhones ever made!!! I have the 13 pro max and I am UPGRADING to the 13 mini. The mini is the best of EVERYTHING!
Using SE3, have 13 mini as well. Prefer SE3 it’s a classic iPhone design and unbeatable, compact phone lightweight, and such a joy to use instead of today’s home cinema bricks in pocket. I like LCD displays in preference, I’m not keen on amoled, it’s too harsh on eyes at times. Apple have toned it down but still not keen.
Same here. I have a 13 mini and an SE3 (both 128 GB) The mini is amazing, but I’m using the SE3 and love it. It’s a considerable upgrade from the SE2. No complaints. None.
You can't really call the 13 series previous generation, as even the base 14 series has the a15 chip. The 13 series is all worth it since its cheaper (and better in some cases) than the 14 series
Man I miss that phone, I feel like the iPhone 6s, iPhone 11, and this phone mentioned are the best phones, not the top camera or anything but actually practicality and not just some useless features.
I agree that newer iPhone cameras offer sharper, objectively "better" image quality. But it all feels so over the top in saturation and the color science is just not my favorite. Dare I say it, I absolutely love the nostalgic feel that stuff like even the iPhone 7 offers and I would GREATLY favor it over something like a 14 Pro because my ideal style is more in line with the nostalgic feeling and coloring that those older devices offer.
I saw a video comparing the cameras of the 7 and the 14 Pro and at least for video, the 7 has a much more enjoyable look. The 14 Pro is way too oversharpened. The 7 might not have as much detail, but has a very pleasant soft look, which, especially for video, is what one would look for.
Yeah it's computational photography that has advanced I think, but the camera itself without software probably hasn't improved so much, I'm guessing hence why older iPhone photos look more natural.
I recently got the 11 upgrading from an older Samsung. I put thought into how the phones felt and personally I didn't like the sharper edges of the newer phones. I like the rounded edges even if the bezel isn't the best on the 11. in comparison to the newer phones, the display, while is noticeably less smooth due to the 60hz refresh rate, was still very pleasant to use. This is all my personal option and I understand that others would be a lot more bothered by this. The next phone I get is definitely going to be the 13 mini. This is the best phone right now that isn't filled with bugs and issues.
You arent wrong. The iphone 11 is great. The screen looks perfect and there are very few bugs also the battery lasts just as long as the 14. This guy is just like all of the other tech nerds who looks at every single pixel. For most people they cant tell the difference between most of the screens.
@@andyd3447 I wouldnt call him a tech nerd i mean the video was amazing. Also there are some problems like the bezel is starting to look dated but the 11 is a amazing budget option especially if you were like me and switching from android to ios and want something that wont break the bank. Also as a tech youtuber I guess he is supposed to look at every little detail. that can make a difference in buying or moving on for some people.
@@andyd3447 yea i guess that was a bit of an over exaggeration. the screen is perfectly acceptable. however larger bezels, whether on monitors or phones, are starting to look dated. its common practice to manufacture displays with as small bezels as possible. at least thats what we are seeing in most of the cooperate display manufactures, ESPECIALLY in phones. like i said in my initial comment, the display is perfectly fine to me.
The 13 is nice. But I want the larger lighter plus. And the 14 series has improved audio out compared to the already excellent 13. I'm moving from a 6.8" android phone to put my main sim in an iPhone for the first time for a long time! (6 years upgrade, durability, performance over the long term...). Moving from 11 pro max, great phone and sold it for a great price.
I just bought the 13 mini.. came from a Pro Max.. you won’t miss anything but the large form factor and fancier cameras but for a daily phone.. it’s a good one. Battery has been good to me.
I agree with all of that and i was so close to getting a 13 but sense I'm getting it on a 2y plan, it makes little to no difference getting the 14 instead and having that extra 2gb of ram for future proofing. Besides the fast that the screen and back glass and the battery for that matter are MUCH easier and cheaper to replace, is a big reason I'm goin for the 14
I'm getting the 14 pro just for the reason that the 13 and 14 are generally the same phone on the outside but there so much more on the 14 pro for $200 plus i don't have a phone right now so why not get the best one. I don't have big enough hands for max lol.
Yeah, the extra 2 GB of RAM of the 14s may turn out to be a bigger deal than it may seem right now. I think the combination of all the little extras 14s has over the 13s do justify the $100ish price difference in the US, they are not literally the same exact as the 13s as some, like Arthur in this video, keep insisting. If you have a 13 already though or get a special deal on one, then there isn't a reason to upgrade to 14s. As for the Pros, I wish I had gotten the 13 Pros when they were new with a carrier deal, but I do not trust the refurbished ones unless they come from Apple. Too many reviews of people saying they got screwed on refurbished ones, like the phones being in worse condition, being locked to carriers still, etc. I'm leaning more towards the 14 over 14 Pro because I don't like the dynamic island though and I probably wouldn't make use of the ProRAW photos and ProRes videos much due to their large sizes, especially the latter which is 5 GB per minute of video.
@@the_letter_b yur words and explaining the I phone 14 is true on paper and specs sheet but real world every day usage will bring slightly different from the 13 I agree with yu
I upgraded from the 11 to the 13 pro. I like some of the features the 13 pro has with the cameras, screen type, and MagSafe. But other than those features, I wish I had my old 11. Or more ideally, I wish I had my old 11 but with the 13 cameras, the 13 screen type, and MagSafe. The 11 is lighter, thinner, easier to hold in my hand, and the screen size is about right.
I just upgraded from 6s to 13 pro. But feel kinda regret because of the front camera. I should’ve get the 14 pro because it has an autofocus on the front camera. And it gives much better photos. I feel like 13 pro front camera is not much different from my 6s’ 😅 the photos still look blurry in my opinion, especially the close up one. And also the video mode. Wish i can change it to the 14 pro🥲
If buying older you’re likely trying to save. 13 Pro Max is blooming brilliant but still cost a bomb used. XS Max is still a good older option. I wouldn’t buy any used (or new) based on camera. Get a real mini cam , better for less & last way longer. I’d focus on iOS support & how long you plan to keep it as beyond that, they’ll all perform so close on same iOS 15-16. To be fair, a 6s Plus camera is still quite nice to many mid range modern cheaper phones. Quality didn’t really step up till the 13.
Quality stepped up on the 12 not 13 the 12 changed literally everything from the 11 such as the display LCD to OLED way better cameras way better battery life and it brought 5G and it brought back the old iPhone 4s and 5 flat edges the 12 was a massive jump from the 11 in literally everything
Yeah I agree dude I’ve had my iPhone 13 for over a year now still sitting on 98 percent battery 🔋 capacity and it’s battery life during a full day rarely drops below 60 percent 13 mini my we cousin has one of them he never has any problems with his iPhone 13 mini so thank you really enjoyed that very informative video
Frankly, I have a XR from 2018 and it works well. However, I am waiting for the soon to be released iPhone SE4 later this year at about 500 bucks with a fast A15 chip, especially with a 6.1 inch Screen and OLED display as well. As a 71 year old, I need that larger Screen as opposed to the present 4.8 inch screen
I have the XR too and this is the first time I’ve even thought about wanting a new phone. That’s really only cause my phone is pretty scratched up now. Not like I can’t afford the new one I just couldn’t tell the difference between the old and new.😂
@@KimaniAjamu Probably a better Apple chip in your newer XR. My original battery from the 2018 XR model has 92 percent health and so, I am going to keep it until it goes down to 80 percent before I buy a newer model. I can wait until March, 2024 for the newer iPhone SE4 with a A15 chip, 6.1 inch screen, OLED screen, 5G receptivity and a 500 dollar price. I don’t need the extra bells and whistles as I am retired and no company is going to pay for it for me.
I have an XR PLUS and I still really love it. I do want to switch to 5G eventually but I have had this phone since 2018 and I still love it. Battery is just starting to drop and it was disconcerting that a few people with the 14 had their phones battery life to drop almost as low as mine in 1 year.
My kids went from iPhone X to 13 Pro. Personally, I'm not a fan of the weight of their phone. This time last year, I upgraded from iPhone 7 to XS. I'm very happy with all its features, and will probably keep it til Apple stop giving it the latest IOS. At that point, I’m seriously considering the 13 Mini (will probably have to get second hand).
yep ... I got to say I agree with you that the iPhone 13 is the best pick for most people ... the 13 also still has a physical sim which makes it way better for people who travels as the 14 only as esim which isn't used everywhere.
@@angelopebs thanks...yeah I forgot to point that out I meant only in the States that we get the ESim which is a total pain . I have a s s10e that used for running and camping and outdoor activities cuz it's small and you know it's worth about a hundred bucks now so it's not the end of the world but if I was to get an iPhone 14 I couldn't swap back and forth so I'm not getting anything past the 13 at least here in the States
@@jejunamja same here I was looking at buying an iPhone 14 and found it there’s no SIM card slot and to buy one abroad from Canada Or England is pretty costly for shipping so I’m going with an iPhone 13
I like the 12 Pro Max, 13 series, and even the 14 Pro! It's the next best thing instead of the most expensive 14 Pro Max. You don't need that unless you need the best of the best, for your job, and the best battery life and size. But, for casual smartphone use and you prefer iPhones, for the best money I would just go with the next best thing.
I use the iPhone XR as my work phone, the 13 pro max as my daily driver, the xr is my favorite iPhone released to date, and it is a great phone to buy in 2023, not as good as many but way better than a lot!
I'm using the XR myself and totally agree with your take on it, I've used it without hassle or problems the past 2 and half years. Battery health is great and mine is on 90% presently, which is really impressive considering the time of use. Unfortunately it's time to upgrade and the best option for upgrade considering my budget is the the iPhone 13. This vid has me convinced I'd be making the best choice. Still gonna keep and use my XR as a backup or secondary device
I still have my XR Plus since 2018 and mine is still fabulous. I keep looking for what model to jump over to 5G but I am only tempted because of that and I feel like I won't like several things.
I disagree with what you said about emergency satellite connectivity on the 14 series. For some of us, this is important. For several years now, my hiking backpack has borne the extra weight of a satellite locator beacon - this 14 now means I can ditch it, thus lightening my pack. It's the only reason I'm upgrading from my standard 11.
i have 13 mini, but i dont recommend it. You will have regular typing mistakes and fiddle with zoom in and out at airport, bills etc etc. Battery is alright, it last me a day, but I realize the screen real state is small. I am not a big person in any manner, average size hands. Regular size is best the model. Go for iPhone 14 or pro, or wait for 15 as it has USB C.
I’m writing this on iPad 8th gen, but I have the iPhone 13 and it’s absolutely amazing. Battery life will last 1-2 full days, and I’m a very power heavy user. The speed and cameras are top of the line, and I have absolutely 0 regrets. Coming from a galaxy a32 5G, this upgrade was a lifesaver! Definitely worth the price, 10/10
I fully agree 10 out of 10. I have the 13 mini for over a year and the battery health is at 98%. The screen and camera are top notch. It runs like a charm as well. Never heated up, nor did it freeze. Best iPhone I have ever had. I will keep it until Apple stops supporting it and replace the battery if I ever need it. I absolutely love this phone!
I got the iPhone 14. The size is good since I have a phone that finally fits in my pocket. Not much big of a fan with big phones since I hate how can’t fit inside my pockets. Just more into normal standard sized phones. Camera still has good features & takes way clearer photos than it did with the Samsung phone I had before this one. & had that phone for 2 yrs.
who don’t use tempered glass on a phone? idk why but most tempered glass are anti-scratch but as soon as you take off the tempered glass, the screen can just easily scratches
Had all the iPhone pro models. The 13 pro max is the best value for money. But the 14 pro max has small usability improvements that make it much more enjoyable experience than the 13. So would say if you can afford it, the 14 is better.
You don't need to upgrade. Your phone can last you for much longer. Don't just buy the new model just cus it's popular and better. Use your phone until it starts to slow down and get rlly bad or other than that you don't need to upgrade
@@mec1617 everyone has their own trade offs. My company has a corporate deal with telcos that allows me the ability to upgrade each year no cost provided I trade in or sell my older phone. Otherwise I fully agree a phone can last 3-4 years without upgrade - there isn’t anything revolutionary in phones that warrant upgrades yearly.
I still use the 11 for 4 years now, still works like a champ. Battery health is at 86% and have to charge 1x a day, with only using WhatsApp, instagram, spotify, mail, and some safari. Also the build quality, it's build like a tank!
Just bought iPhone 11 Pro last month and I’m loving it. Personally I still think that ip11 pro is a good choice in 2023 especially if you find a cheap one
@@palsoltesz9967 of course if you want a latest feature you should aim for the latest. As for me, I don’t really aim for those camera features so I’m good with iPhone 11 Pro. Much cheaper too
I just sold my 14 pro to get 13 mini, and i don't regret it. The size is perfect, i use it only with one hand,it fits into small pockets,it's light,it has the same features as the big brother and the battery is great for me ( i'm not a heavy user but i do have magsafe also, just in case). If only apple made a 14 mini. But i read that the 13 was the last line up with a mini model. So sad.
Great review and observation. Was really helpful. I came back to Samsung from apple 13 mini just for call recorder & true caller. Can't switch back since the upgrades are so mean
That’s my main issue with tech RUclipsrs. Almost everyone praise the dynamic island as a solution for the notch. When it really it makes more noticeable. Also this means all the apps must adapt the UI for that only feature. Apple made the mistake to give the dynamic Island only to better iPhone models. It simply doesn’t make any sense. At this point they either go for under display front camera, smaller notch o simply add a damn bezel.
I bought my iPhone 7 in 2020, and even though I loved it at the time, it started to show its age and downsides. I still used it because it worked and I didn't need it, but after smashing the screen a few times and replacing it the camera started acting up, the stabilization motor kept shaking back and forth. I then decided to get my 12 pro used secondhand for $400 which I'm holding right now. Let's be real, the 13 and 14 pros are really just copycats of the 12 pro with a different sized notch and camera. I couldn't ask for more as I don't need more, and this 12 pro has been performing awesome for me for the past 2 months that I've had it.

Which one would you pick : 13 normal : 630 usd (100% battery) 12 pro : 630 usd (90% bat) 12 normal : 490 usd (90%+ bat)
13 normal. if you don`t need ProRaw, 50mm lens (2x) and lidar. the 13 has better battery life then the other phones, has the iPhone 12 pro max camera (12 pro max 1. iPhone camera with ibis = sensor stabilization) with better camera tuning, better speakers, 1 year longer software updates. you didn`t talk about the storage size. the iPhone 13 starts with 128gb aswell as the iPhone 12 pro.

I have the Xs with me and I bought it refurbished, frankly this phone is a power house for me. The battery is all day for me as it is replaced and the screen is pretty good than the Xr or 11, and it also has stainless steel borders which is better than 7000 aluminium series. In short I am happy with my purchase.
I have had an XS Max since it launched and I have had great experiences with it. I am upgrading to 11 Pro Max just to go up on memory space and battery life. But for me, it is a choice between replacing the battery for $100 and updating it. 11 Pro Max gets so many good reviews and it is the last of the rounded phones and still uses the physical sim card and people say the 11 Max has a less processed camera than the newer cameras.
I bought the iPhone 13 mini when it first came out. I was planning on a 12 mini but the battery issue convinced me to spend the extra money. The direction Apple is headed, getting rid of the SE instead of upgrading it and keeping it for those who prefer iPhones but can’t afford the high end devices. Their elitist attitude has been a problem for me for since Apple’s inception. But fell in love with the iPhone 12 mini and 13 mini when I held it in my hand. But rather it’s my individual phone or a problem with the mini’s, I am not getting the reception I think I should be getting (and what others around me are getting) and this along with the direction Apple is headed is making my mind up to leave Apple products after this phone (and my iPad 11 Pro) die (and since they were purchased around the same time, they’ll probably expire around the same time.)
I have been waited for the smaller phone since years then finally replaced my iPhone XS by 13 mini. Its best phone i had ever, 5.4" is still big enough screen to write emails, posts on socials and watching YT videos or gaming. No more larger phone ever if possible. It lays in pocket perfectly no matter you're in work or on sport activities like running or biking, and completely no issues with battery working time - one day of very active up to two days when i am not using phone a lot.
Just bought an iPhone 11 Pro Max at a steal. Highly recommend as it’s just a hair smaller than the 13PM but performance is nearly the same. I genuinely can’t see the difference between 60Hz and “ProMotion” 120Hz
X/Xs/Xr: get 11/pro Xs Max: You'll get a large device. Battery endurance is poor for it's size. Looks great. 11: Best "old" iphone. Still a great performer today. 11 Pro: You wanted a 13 mini pro or a better X. 11 Pro Max: Most comfy large iPhone. Great Battery, ushered in premium feel. Get 12 Pro Max if too expensive 12: Peaked in design and base model offerings. 5g, magsafe. Best value. 12 Mini: Terrible battery. Get 13 Mini 12 Pro: Just get a 12 or 13 pro 12 Pro Max: Great device. Worth spending the extra for the 13 Pro Max. 13: Unless found on a deal, get the 12 13 Mini: Best small iphone, but 11 pro is a good value too. 13 Pro: this and the 12 are the best mid-sized iphones. Promotion, plus all tech previous to this model. 13 Pro Max: Apple's most premium and best iPhone ever. Yes, even over the 14 pros. its heavy tho.
His opinion or recommendation for the best iPhone to get does not happen till 15 minutes into the video close to the end of the video. The first 15 minutes of the video is just blabbing on and on about every other iPhone ever made in the last few years.
I upgraded my iPhone SE 2020 to the iPhone 14 and I'm great, but sometimes I think the iPhone 12 Pro could have been better. What can you say about it?
i just bought an alpine green iphone 13 pro for $500 used, in great condition. Looks almost new except for 1 tiny, barely visible scratch near the bottom of the screen. I'll probably keep it until the 16 comes out.
I recently bought iphone 14 pro and im just curoius to see which iphone is the best deal but i must say that im more then satisfied with the battery of 14 pro
I been using an IPhone SE for 2 years over all its very good! Perfect starter IPhone if you want a cheap price. Over all I do not like how the screen isn’t wide like how I like my phones which is why I’m probably gonna upgrade to an iPhone 12. Which has better screens and better batter!
After doing a weeks time of searching for something in my budget i got the 12 model and I'm very pleased with it. Funny thing is i was comparing the battery to the Samsung i had earlier and i kept on getting disappointed. Samsung lasted me two days easy and this one barely a day and a half. So i tweeted it to the Apple people and they told me to lower my expectations as it's an entirely different operating system. The camera is great, performance is fast. Screen is good. I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't want anything pro but still gets the whole package.
I flat out do not trust buying a used phone from Amazon. 13 vs 14, break the rear glass on the 13 and you are looking at a price tag at around $560 vs $160 for the 14 because of the redesign of the 14. Not to mention the 4 gig of ram in the 13 vs the 6 gig of ram in the 14. I chose to get the 14. Yes I could have gotten the 14 pro, I didn’t need for it. Enjoy you video, take care.
the iPhone 11 is the best. The Screen is great. Doesn't appear to be any different than the 12, 13 or 14, the 12, 13 and 14 just go brighter. No difference in resolution. You don't always need the greatest and latest.
I love my iPhone SE 2022, it's small, very capable and affordable. It can do more than Androids in that price range, especially with a camera. For the battery, buy a battery pack that can be attached to a third-party magsafe case with magnets and then last as long as you want.
I am actually thinking about switching to android. Maybe pixel or asus zenphone. I am getting sick of apples nonsense. I want USB-c. I want to be able to use external storage. i want decent battery life, i want good value. I have already switched my laptop away from the macboook pro. Now my phone. I am slowly divesting myself of everything apple.
iphone 11 pro shoots just as good photos as the 14 pro. Actually better, as the post-processing isn’t as aggresive as on the 14, where it actually renders your photos as useless, in some cases. The exception is of course in low light. But if you don’t shoot many night photos, the 11 is a good choice.
@@nonsogerard2515 I’m nothing but chill, just saying if u think an iPhone from 2019 shoots better photos than an iPhone from 2022, you must be high. That’s a fact.
Unless you are like me and suffer from pwm sensitivity, so my only choices are the 11 or the SE2022. The regular 12 and 13's should have been lcd and saved the oled screens for the pro models.
My parents are old, My marriage is old. Is it time to change them too ? Not a rant but just saying something is old - and hence shouldn’t be bought really isn’t reason enough.
I only need an iphone for the export and analysis of health data from my apple watch, thankgod. I had an xr rental that I sent back and got a 2016 se for £55 which suits me down to the ground. Long live Android and the vast choice of phones and software at reasonable prices and also not held to ransom by the manufacturers once you have bought one.
iPhones are so ahead of its competitors when it comes to raw power, software updates are still available for the much older model iPhones. I’ve had the iPhone 10s max since it first launched and although the charge port has failed me, the phone’s battery and overall performance/ are still very good! I’ve made a appointment to fix the charging port and get a new battery before the end of 2023 but my current battery life is still giving me peak performance at 84%. When Apple decides that software updates will no longer be supported for iPhone 10s max is the day I will upgrade my iPhone. My personal advice is maybe consider buying something different, Google Pixel 7 is amazing! And get your new iPhone when software updates are no longer supported. iPhones are powerful enough to last you for many years!

13 mini is my favorite! As a disabled person I need a small yet powerful phone and this is exactly what I'm getting here. In fact the iPhone mini lineup is what forced me to switch from Android to Apple after almost a decade. It just proves that even if I'm in the minority and the mini sales are much lower from the standard version, there is a group of people who want and need a small flagship. I hope Apple won't forget about us in the near future. I'm sure my iPhone 13 mini can still last me a few years. Iphone 16 mini would be my dream come true! 🥰
How is the battery backup?
@@MBZ1712 what do you mean? If you meant how long does the battery last on average it lasts me an entire day if I don't use it very intensively. The battery is very good for a phone this size.

I think the 13 mini is the best iphone currently. Hardcore users can buy the MagSafe Battery pack. Still cheaper than the regular 13 in this combination, and you get almost the same battery life as the 13 Pro in a much smaller and lighter phone. It takes a few days to get used to a smaller phone but once you do, you will never go back to a big heavy phone trust me.

I think the burn-in is not specifically from the "dynamic island" but because the screen is too bright. 2000 nits is ridiculously bright and most people probably set it to max brightness while outside which is understandable.
I recently bought iPhone 12 Pro and I would have bought iPhone 13 used, but LiDAR scanner is something I could use. Since I could use it for modelling and development purposes. I've been planning to save sometime by taking 3d models of props in my room and put them in my game, so I don't need to model them myself. That was a dealbreaker for me and made me go with 12 pro.
One thing I’ve learned, is to not go for the even numbered iPhones (such as the iPhone 12 series & the iPhone 14 series), as they tend to have many problems, such as the awful battery life that my mother has with the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Instead, go with the odd numbered iPhones (like the iPhone 11 series, the iPhone 13 series, & most likely the upcoming iPhone 15 series). Little to no problems whatsoever.
That… doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. It sound like you are judging a good based on its name.

Where does your battery health sit at and how long does a full charge take you
@@victorrashford758 I primarily use it as my daily driver, for personal and work use. I don’t access social media aside from YT and LinkedIn, I don’t play games but more on MS Teams chats and video calls from clients, battery lasts for about almost a day with 30% up remaining. Charging to 80% could only take like 30-45 mins, then it’ll slowly charge to 100% for about an hour if I’m not mistaken. So far so good
Battery health sits at 100%. My phone is almost 1 year old.
@@victorrashford758I have a 13 mini for over a year (14 months) my battery health is at 98%. I don’t know exactly how long I can use it on a full battery, but it’s pretty decent.

I am planning to completely wire it out, because I have a feeling this one will last one hell of a long time.
I just bought the iPhone 13. The iPhone 14 was above my budget. And I did consider buying a refurbished 13 from Backmarket but thought $458 was too much to pay for a phone who might have had its battery or screen replaced. Furthermore I wouldn’t know how long it’s been used and how often. I decided to pay the extra money to get a new one straight from Apple.

@@jayvansickle7607 so my phone is acting a lot slower, the keys in the keyboard don’t press sometimes even after a screen replacement. The overall battery drains way way more quicker. And the camera doesn’t work as well, I have no idea why the camera one is but that’s really really strange. And also the phone has apps that I was previously using on the background while switching to the next app. So let’s say I’m on Snapchat, you
Can see Snapchat in the background when switching over to Instagram. It’s very faint but you can definitely see it which is annoying after a while. Apps and screen definitely do not run as smooth either. It’s just getting a little worse every month
@@jayvansickle7607 It just all happened right after the 16 update. A lot of iPhone 11 users having the same problem too. If you look on upgrading from your iPhone 11 to iPhone 14 plus videos. A lot of comments saying what I’m saying
Last year, I was in dire need of a phone upgrade, the battery life of the 6s was just not cutting it anymore and I had to charge it multiple times a day. While it’s impressive how long support was available for it and how well it ran after many years, I was definitely looking for something that would last me throughout the day and be feature rich. I shelled out the money to buy the iPhone 13 Pro back in February, and while it’s kind of a bummer that my 128gb model doesn’t support the best of ProRes, it’s not a huge deal because I rarely try to make any beautiful pieces of videography anyway and the ProMotion just makes using the phone so much better. This phone is definitely going to last me a few years, I plan on replacing the battery once it surpasses the 80% health mark and use it until it’s time to upgrade again. I’m usually pretty minimal with the amount of storage I take up so I don’t see myself hitting 128gb anytime soon, but if I ever do, I’m sure whatever I choose to upgrade to won’t even have that as an option anymore.

Me watching this with iPhone 6😔😂
Man I miss that phone, I feel like the iPhone 6s, iPhone 11, and this phone mentioned are the best phones, not the top camera or anything but actually practicality and not just some useless features.
I agree that newer iPhone cameras offer sharper, objectively "better" image quality. But it all feels so over the top in saturation and the color science is just not my favorite. Dare I say it, I absolutely love the nostalgic feel that stuff like even the iPhone 7 offers and I would GREATLY favor it over something like a 14 Pro because my ideal style is more in line with the nostalgic feeling and coloring that those older devices offer.
I saw a video comparing the cameras of the 7 and the 14 Pro and at least for video, the 7 has a much more enjoyable look. The 14 Pro is way too oversharpened. The 7 might not have as much detail, but has a very pleasant soft look, which, especially for video, is what one would look for.
Yeah it's computational photography that has advanced I think, but the camera itself without software probably hasn't improved so much, I'm guessing hence why older iPhone photos look more natural.
I recently got the 11 upgrading from an older Samsung. I put thought into how the phones felt and personally I didn't like the sharper edges of the newer phones. I like the rounded edges even if the bezel isn't the best on the 11. in comparison to the newer phones, the display, while is noticeably less smooth due to the 60hz refresh rate, was still very pleasant to use. This is all my personal option and I understand that others would be a lot more bothered by this. The next phone I get is definitely going to be the 13 mini. This is the best phone right now that isn't filled with bugs and issues.
You arent wrong. The iphone 11 is great. The screen looks perfect and there are very few bugs also the battery lasts just as long as the 14. This guy is just like all of the other tech nerds who looks at every single pixel. For most people they cant tell the difference between most of the screens.
@@andyd3447 I wouldnt call him a tech nerd i mean the video was amazing. Also there are some problems like the bezel is starting to look dated but the 11 is a amazing budget option especially if you were like me and switching from android to ios and want something that wont break the bank. Also as a tech youtuber I guess he is supposed to look at every little detail. that can make a difference in buying or moving on for some people.
@@domvanderstroom9240 He said that the screen of the iphone 11 was not acceptable in 2023? Really? how arrogant can he be?
@@andyd3447 yea i guess that was a bit of an over exaggeration. the screen is perfectly acceptable. however larger bezels, whether on monitors or phones, are starting to look dated. its common practice to manufacture displays with as small bezels as possible. at least thats what we are seeing in most of the cooperate display manufactures, ESPECIALLY in phones. like i said in my initial comment, the display is perfectly fine to me.
@@andyd3447 right?? I was like not everyone can afford the new iPhone 14 and he arrogantly goes and shits on a great iPhone?? This dude has nerve.
The 13 is nice. But I want the larger lighter plus. And the 14 series has improved audio out compared to the already excellent 13. I'm moving from a 6.8" android phone to put my main sim in an iPhone for the first time for a long time! (6 years upgrade, durability, performance over the long term...).

@@adriel88_regular 14? Cuz same
I just bought the 13 mini.. came from a Pro Max.. you won’t miss anything but the large form factor and fancier cameras but for a daily phone.. it’s a good one. Battery has been good to me.
How long does your battery last?
I agree with all of that and i was so close to getting a 13 but sense I'm getting it on a 2y plan, it makes little to no difference getting the 14 instead and having that extra 2gb of ram for future proofing. Besides the fast that the screen and back glass and the battery for that matter are MUCH easier and cheaper to replace, is a big reason I'm goin for the 14
I'm getting the 14 pro just for the reason that the 13 and 14 are generally the same phone on the outside but there so much more on the 14 pro for $200 plus i don't have a phone right now so why not get the best one. I don't have big enough hands for max lol.
@@Oknoplease That's what she said... she also said the same thing about Max... her hands were too little.
I have a question i have a pixel 6 i keep the britness at 30% 60 hz and powersaving mode on i get 11-12 hours of on screen time how much do you get
Yeah, the extra 2 GB of RAM of the 14s may turn out to be a bigger deal than it may seem right now. I think the combination of all the little extras 14s has over the 13s do justify the $100ish price difference in the US, they are not literally the same exact as the 13s as some, like Arthur in this video, keep insisting. If you have a 13 already though or get a special deal on one, then there isn't a reason to upgrade to 14s. As for the Pros, I wish I had gotten the 13 Pros when they were new with a carrier deal, but I do not trust the refurbished ones unless they come from Apple. Too many reviews of people saying they got screwed on refurbished ones, like the phones being in worse condition, being locked to carriers still, etc. I'm leaning more towards the 14 over 14 Pro because I don't like the dynamic island though and I probably wouldn't make use of the ProRAW photos and ProRes videos much due to their large sizes, especially the latter which is 5 GB per minute of video.

I feel like 13 pro front camera is not much different from my 6s’ 😅 the photos still look blurry in my opinion, especially the close up one. And also the video mode. Wish i can change it to the 14 pro🥲
If buying older you’re likely trying to save. 13 Pro Max is blooming brilliant but still cost a bomb used. XS Max is still a good older option. I wouldn’t buy any used (or new) based on camera. Get a real mini cam , better for less & last way longer. I’d focus on iOS support & how long you plan to keep it as beyond that, they’ll all perform so close on same iOS 15-16. To be fair, a 6s Plus camera is still quite nice to many mid range modern cheaper phones. Quality didn’t really step up till the 13.
Quality stepped up on the 12 not 13 the 12 changed literally everything from the 11 such as the display LCD to OLED way better cameras way better battery life and it brought 5G and it brought back the old iPhone 4s and 5 flat edges the 12 was a massive jump from the 11 in literally everything
The 11 pro still has a very good camera….

As a 71 year old, I need that larger Screen as opposed to the present 4.8 inch screen

Probably a better Apple chip in your newer XR. My original battery from the 2018 XR model has 92 percent health and so, I am going to keep it until it goes down to 80 percent before I buy a newer model.
I can wait until March, 2024 for the newer iPhone SE4 with a A15 chip, 6.1 inch screen, OLED screen, 5G receptivity and a 500 dollar price.

Just upgraded from an iPhone SE (2nd gen) to the iPhone 13 mini. I love a smaller phone. I love both so much but this 13 mini is just perfect.
My kids went from iPhone X to 13 Pro. Personally, I'm not a fan of the weight of their phone. This time last year, I upgraded from iPhone 7 to XS.

I like the 12 Pro Max, 13 series, and even the 14 Pro! It's the next best thing instead of the most expensive 14 Pro Max. You don't need that unless you need the best of the best, for your job, and the best battery life and size. But, for casual smartphone use and you prefer iPhones, for the best money I would just go with the next best thing.
I use the iPhone XR as my work phone, the 13 pro max as my daily driver, the xr is my favorite iPhone released to date, and it is a great phone to buy in 2023, not as good as many but way better than a lot!
I'm using the XR myself and totally agree with your take on it, I've used it without hassle or problems the past 2 and half years. Battery health is great and mine is on 90%
presently, which is really impressive considering the time of use. Unfortunately it's time to upgrade and the best option for upgrade considering
my budget is the the iPhone 13. This vid has me convinced I'd be making the best choice. Still gonna keep and use my XR as a backup or secondary device
I still have my XR Plus since 2018 and mine is still fabulous. I keep looking for what model to jump over to 5G but I am only tempted because of that and I feel like I won't like several things.
I disagree with what you said about emergency satellite connectivity on the 14 series. For some of us, this is important. For several years now, my hiking backpack has borne the extra weight of a satellite locator beacon - this 14 now means I can ditch it, thus lightening my pack. It's the only reason I'm upgrading from my standard 11.
i have 13 mini, but i dont recommend it. You will have regular typing mistakes and fiddle with zoom in and out at airport, bills etc etc. Battery is alright, it last me a day, but I realize the screen real state is small. I am not a big person in any manner, average size hands. Regular size is best the model. Go for iPhone 14 or pro, or wait for 15 as it has USB C.
I’m writing this on iPad 8th gen, but I have the iPhone 13 and it’s absolutely amazing. Battery life will last 1-2 full days, and I’m a very power heavy user. The speed and cameras are top of the line, and I have absolutely 0 regrets. Coming from a galaxy a32 5G, this upgrade was a lifesaver! Definitely worth the price, 10/10
Wow 😯 1-2 days battery life , that’s amazing my iPhone 11 last for upto 8-12 hours

I got the iPhone 14. The size is good since I have a phone that finally fits in my pocket. Not much big of a fan with big phones since I hate how can’t fit inside my pockets.

I just sold my 14 pro to get 13 mini, and i don't regret it. The size is perfect, i use it only with one hand,it fits into small pockets,it's light,it has the same features as the big brother and the battery is great for me ( i'm not a heavy user but i do have magsafe also, just in case). If only apple made a 14 mini. But i read that the 13 was the last line up with a mini model. So sad.
Great review and observation. Was really helpful. I came back to Samsung from apple 13 mini just for call recorder & true caller. Can't switch back since the upgrades are so mean
That’s my main issue with tech RUclipsrs. Almost everyone praise the dynamic island as a solution for the notch. When it really it makes more noticeable. Also this means all the apps must adapt the UI for that only feature.
Apple made the mistake to give the dynamic Island only to better iPhone models. It simply doesn’t make any sense.
At this point they either go for under display front camera, smaller notch o simply add a damn bezel.
I bought my iPhone 7 in 2020, and even though I loved it at the time, it started to show its age and downsides. I still used it because it worked and I didn't need it, but after smashing the screen a few times and replacing it the camera started acting up, the stabilization motor kept shaking back and forth. I then decided to get my 12 pro used secondhand for $400 which I'm holding right now. Let's be real, the 13 and 14 pros are really just copycats of the 12 pro with a different sized notch and camera. I couldn't ask for more as I don't need more, and this 12 pro has been performing awesome for me for the past 2 months that I've had it.
Which one would you pick :
13 normal : 630 usd (100% battery)
12 pro : 630 usd (90% bat)
12 normal : 490 usd (90%+ bat)
12 pro, easy decision
13 100% much better battery life. Only thing missing is the extra telephoto lens.
This is the exact problem I’m having. Just swap out the 12 normal for 13 mini for me
13 normal. if you don`t need ProRaw, 50mm lens (2x) and lidar.
the 13 has better battery life then the other phones, has the iPhone 12 pro max camera (12 pro max 1. iPhone camera with ibis = sensor stabilization) with better camera tuning, better speakers, 1 year longer software updates. you didn`t talk about the storage size. the iPhone 13 starts with 128gb aswell as the iPhone 12 pro.

I use the iPhone XR still. Been using it since 2018 (i switched to an SE 2020 in 2020 but i switched back) and it gets the job done.
I have the Xs with me and I bought it refurbished, frankly this phone is a power house for me. The battery is all day for me as it is replaced and the screen is pretty good than the Xr or 11, and it also has stainless steel borders which is better than 7000 aluminium series. In short I am happy with my purchase.
I have had an XS Max since it launched and I have had great experiences with it. I am upgrading to 11 Pro Max just to go up on memory space and battery life. But for me, it is a choice between replacing the battery for $100 and updating it. 11 Pro Max gets so many good reviews and it is the last of the rounded phones and still uses the physical sim card and people say the 11 Max has a less processed camera than the newer cameras.
I bought the iPhone 13 mini when it first came out. I was planning on a 12 mini but the battery issue convinced me to spend the extra money. The direction Apple is headed, getting rid of the SE instead of upgrading it and keeping it for those who prefer iPhones but can’t afford the high end devices. Their elitist attitude has been a problem for me for since Apple’s inception. But fell in love with the iPhone 12 mini and 13 mini when I held it in my hand. But rather it’s my individual phone or a problem with the mini’s, I am not getting the reception I think I should be getting (and what others around me are getting) and this along with the direction Apple is headed is making my mind up to leave Apple products after this phone (and my iPad 11 Pro) die (and since they were purchased around the same time, they’ll probably expire around the same time.)
iphone 14 plus is so good great battery life
I have been waited for the smaller phone since years then finally replaced my iPhone XS by 13 mini.
Its best phone i had ever, 5.4" is still big enough screen to write emails, posts on socials and watching YT videos or gaming. No more larger phone ever if possible.
It lays in pocket perfectly no matter you're in work or on sport activities like running or biking, and completely no issues with battery working time - one day of very active up to two days when i am not using phone a lot.
Just bought an iPhone 11 Pro Max at a steal. Highly recommend as it’s just a hair smaller than the 13PM but performance is nearly the same. I genuinely can’t see the difference between 60Hz and “ProMotion” 120Hz
X/Xs/Xr: get 11/pro
Xs Max: You'll get a large device. Battery endurance is poor for it's size. Looks great.
11: Best "old" iphone. Still a great performer today.
11 Pro: You wanted a 13 mini pro or a better X.
11 Pro Max: Most comfy large iPhone. Great Battery, ushered in premium feel. Get 12 Pro Max if too expensive
12: Peaked in design and base model offerings. 5g, magsafe. Best value.
12 Mini: Terrible battery. Get 13 Mini
12 Pro: Just get a 12 or 13 pro
12 Pro Max: Great device. Worth spending the extra for the 13 Pro Max.
13: Unless found on a deal, get the 12
13 Mini: Best small iphone, but 11 pro is a good value too.
13 Pro: this and the 12 are the best mid-sized iphones. Promotion, plus all tech previous to this model.
13 Pro Max: Apple's most premium and best iPhone ever. Yes, even over the 14 pros. its heavy tho.
His opinion or recommendation for the best iPhone to get does not happen till 15 minutes into the video close to the end of the video.
The first 15 minutes of the video is just blabbing on and on about every other iPhone ever made in the last few years.
I still got my iPhone 12 pro Max since 2020 the 1st time it came out and battery life is 87%
I upgraded my iPhone SE 2020 to the iPhone 14 and I'm great, but sometimes I think the iPhone 12 Pro could have been better. What can you say about it?
Yes the 12 pro would be better it has the same brightness and battery life as the 14 and it has 3 cameras compared to 2 and it has the nice pro design
i made the exact same upgrade no regrets though and in think the 13 pro could have been better not 12 pro so much
My sister-in-law has started having issues with her 12. (I have an XR and still don't have any issues, so I am a little afraid of the newer phones)
i just bought an alpine green iphone 13 pro for $500 used, in great condition. Looks almost new except for 1 tiny, barely visible scratch near the bottom of the screen. I'll probably keep it until the 16 comes out.
In my opinion a notch that moves like dynamic island is better because there will be no wasted thin screen on the top.
I recently bought iphone 14 pro and im just curoius to see which iphone is the best deal but i must say that im more then satisfied with the battery of 14 pro
What about the iPhone 11 Pro Max
The 12 lineup it’s just the best!Because it has a better price and it’s just close the same as the 13 just 1 year diffrence💁🏻♀️
Rocking iPhone 12 pro max will keep it
I just got a iPhone 12 Pro Max 256g for 600 us and I’m not even mad
I been using an IPhone SE for 2 years over all its very good! Perfect starter IPhone if you want a cheap price. Over all I do not like how the screen isn’t wide like how I like my phones which is why I’m probably gonna upgrade to an iPhone 12. Which has better screens and better batter!
I ended up in a 14 Plus and I don’t regret it. With a carrier subsidy it becomes a far better deal
Worst
Still on 11pro max 👌 all is well
I recently bought the iPhone 11 Pro refurbished with 1 year warranty. Happy and i personally like the old & round design - and 5.8“ is a great size!
13 Pro Max the best,
Beast smartphone.
I recently bought iphone 14 plus for a retail price of iphone 13 so im pretty happy, love the big screen needed that for sure
If you don’t want the 14 not the pro BUY THE iPhone 13
Upgrading to the Iphone 14 from an android phone is a win already for me
iphone 13 is the best iPhone... PERIOD!
My choice is Iphone 13 mini. It's special, long battery life, easy to handle and i love it
After doing a weeks time of searching for something in my budget i got the 12 model and I'm very pleased with it. Funny thing is i was comparing the battery to the Samsung i had earlier and i kept on getting disappointed. Samsung lasted me two days easy and this one barely a day and a half. So i tweeted it to the Apple people and they told me to lower my expectations as it's an entirely different operating system. The camera is great, performance is fast. Screen is good. I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't want anything pro but still gets the whole package.
@@aqcys6165 location off. data on only when needed. That worked for me.
I flat out do not trust buying a used phone from Amazon.
13 vs 14, break the rear glass on the 13 and you are looking at a price tag at around $560 vs $160 for the 14 because of the redesign of the 14. Not to mention the 4 gig of ram in the 13 vs the 6 gig of ram in the 14.
I chose to get the 14. Yes I could have gotten the 14 pro, I didn’t need for it. Enjoy you video, take care.
using 12 since a year and a half and i still have 100% battery percentage!! How?? Because its mine😂
If I am upgrading from an iPhone 8 Plus, is it worth to get the iPhone 14 Plus?
oh.. if you would just see prices of these phones in europe... idk if you would recommend any of these
the iPhone 11 is the best. The Screen is great. Doesn't appear to be any different than the 12, 13 or 14, the 12, 13 and 14 just go brighter. No difference in resolution. You don't always need the greatest and latest.
Finally someone who detaily explained, and delivered the answer! Thank you so much man, you deserved the sub! Cheers!

I love my iPhone SE 2022, it's small, very capable and affordable. It can do more than Androids in that price range, especially with a camera.
For the battery, buy a battery pack that can be attached to a third-party magsafe case with magnets and then last as long as you want.
I am actually thinking about switching to android. Maybe pixel or asus zenphone. I am getting sick of apples nonsense. I want USB-c. I want to be able to use external storage. i want decent battery life, i want good value. I have already switched my laptop away from the macboook pro. Now my phone. I am slowly divesting myself of everything apple.
Hell no f android
@@delixjagman4535 android is fine if u prefer it
Apple will be USBC next phone and forever forward. Europe put their foot down.
0:57 me still with in 2023 with an iPhone 5s as an daily phone..
iphone 11 pro shoots just as good photos as the 14 pro. Actually better, as the post-processing isn’t as aggresive as on the 14, where it actually renders your photos as useless, in some cases. The exception is of course in low light. But if you don’t shoot many night photos, the 11 is a good choice.
If u think the 11 pro shoots better photos than the 14 pro you must be permanently high
@@Plutoquintana Nope. It does. If you talk about the everyday pictures, shot by the main camera.
@@Plutoquintana chill bro😂😂
@@nonsogerard2515 I’m nothing but chill, just saying if u think an iPhone from 2019 shoots better photos than an iPhone from 2022, you must be high. That’s a fact.
Wtf.. u just corny bcuz u don’t got a new one 😂
Noted the "quick word" about the sponsor lasted 3 minutes, or 18.75% of the whole length. Not at all quick.
Im still deciding between the 12's and the 13's
Lower budget
Between 12 pro vs 13 base and *maybeee* 13 pro if budget yields
Which did you later get and is it doing? I'm in the same position as you atm lol
@@victorjosy5544 get the 13 as the 14 uses the same A15 bionic chip whilst the 12 uses an A14
Brought iphone 13 recently and so far im loving this phone but in INDIA lowest it sells for 63000 rupees that's $770
Unless you are like me and suffer from pwm sensitivity, so my only choices are the 11 or the SE2022. The regular 12 and 13's should have been lcd and saved the oled screens for the pro models.
0 reason to use lcd
if u have that problem dosent mean u should force others into getting lcd
That's exactly why i chose the se3 :)

My parents are old, My marriage is old. Is it time to change them too ?
Not a rant but just saying something is old - and hence shouldn’t be bought really isn’t reason enough.
Iphone 12 is great in 2023
I only need an iphone for the export and analysis of health data from my apple watch, thankgod. I had an xr rental that I sent back and got a 2016 se for £55 which suits me down to the ground. Long live Android and the vast choice of phones and software at reasonable prices and also not held to ransom by the manufacturers once you have bought one.

The iPhone SE 2022 is epic.
iPhones are so ahead of its competitors when it comes to raw power, software updates are still available for the much older model iPhones. I’ve had the iPhone 10s max since it first launched and although the charge port has failed me, the phone’s battery and overall performance/ are still very good! I’ve made a appointment to fix the charging port and get a new battery before the end of 2023 but my current battery life is still giving me peak performance at 84%. When Apple decides that software updates will no longer be supported for iPhone 10s max is the day I will upgrade my iPhone. My personal advice is maybe consider buying something different, Google Pixel 7 is amazing! And get your new iPhone when software updates are no longer supported. iPhones are powerful enough to last you for many years!
Will the iPhone get 4 years or more updates starting from now
