The latest iPhone 13 is the best Apple has to offer at the moment, but that doesn’t mean that an older iPhone 11 is immediately discarded when refurbished.
Sure, scoring the latest iPhone is always best. At least when it comes to specs. Your wallet will be less happy with it. Today there’s really no shame in taking a closer look if you’re really only considering an iPhone. That is because modern smartphones of recent years can still last a long time. Partly thanks to the fact that Apple continues to offer software updates for a long time. Also for the older models.
An example is a refurbished iPhone 11. The smartphone is available with 64 GB, 128 GB or 256 GB of storage. Under the hood is the A13 chip and you have a 6.1-inch Liquid Retina HD display. All hardware that Apple introduced not so long ago. In fact, the iPhone 11 was introduced in 2019. Just two years ago.
Apple will provide support on a new iPhone for about five years. That means that you can go ahead with the iPhone 11 for at least three years when it comes to the latest updates. The big advantage is the price. For a used 11, or even a refurbished iPhone 11 Pro you no longer pay the main price.
An iPhone 13 starts at 909 euros. For less you have a refurbished iPhone 11 Pro Max with specs you don’t have to be ashamed of. You score an iPhone with a Super Retina XDR OLED display with a size of 6.5 inches. On the back is a 12‑MP ultra-wide angle. A wide-angle and telephoto cameras. Then you start thinking. The top model from a few years ago, or the latest entry-level from Apple?
