I’ve been wanting to transition from Android to iOS. There’s a couple sellers here in my country 🇵🇭 selling brand new iphone 11. It’s much more affordable, and something I can buy in cash. Camera is good but the battery bothers me a bit. My research indicates that the iPhone 13 is still up to date and would keep up with current iPhones released these days. Do you have any recommendations?

    I have the 13, it’s still working great! It is also a bit more future-proof than the 11.

    The problem with the 11 is that you would only get I think less than 1 year of software updates and less than 3 years of security updates. The 11 is a great phone though.

    Consider the 13 out of the two. 5G, longer support, great value iPhone at the moment. If i had to recommend, I’d say get a base iPhone 15. Same as the 13 but with usb-c (opens up a plethora of accessories to use), Dynamic Island (multitasking notifications) and the improved form factor (massively much more comfortable).

    I would go with the iPhone 13. The iPhone 11 is coming to an end with OS updates. If you get an iPhone 13 you’ll be supported for another 3-4 years.

    If the 11 is a pro max, send it brother. Save your money and buy it. Many will argue that 11 won’t get the next iOS which it probably won’t but there upgrades in the last 5 years have been marginal at best. 11 pro max, here and battery is still good for a day and half, still snappy performance.

    Get the 13. Will be much more up to date because of iOS updates for the upcoming years than 11

    If you can afford or at least save for the iPhonbe 13 than do that.

    My wife has an iPhone 11 and it’s still an “ok” device. But it’s from 2019 and I would not really recommand to buy such an old device, even if it’s new.
