I don't wanna spend more than $800.
I want an iPhone which is still powerful, pretty on par with the latest ones and that could last me at least 5 years. Was considering getting a refurbished one from one website I got very high feedbacks of and now I am in doubt between:
12 Pro Max: it's $620 at most with OG cable ultra charge and excellent conditions. I fear it's a little too old screen-wise and processor-wise in 2023/24.
13 Pro Max: $799 is the price I get for 256GB and excellent conditions with the cable and all. I am mostly considering this.
14: Around the same as the 13 Pro Max but it has 4K Cinematic Mode as far as I know and maybe it's better performanfe wise.
Keep in mind: I'm not touching one of these since 2010 with the 4S and I want the 120hz display, a great camera and a good battery life.
I heard only good things about how strong 13 Pro/Pro Max performance and battery are. I went through a lot of videos when deciding to invest in the new iPhone 15 Pro and I was left surprised how good the 13 model performed. If these are your listed options, please go for the 13 Pro Max. You won't regret it. In a year, you would have higher battery health than me with my 15 model. I know that for a fact :))
