Again, not true. If OP were near me, I can do a battery replacement on iPhone 13 and older models for $50. The part costs me $26 and it takes me about 40 minutes labor, so I’m doing it for a very reasonable price and providing a service at a cost that barely keeps me operating. There are plenty of shops like mine. Key word i said was “reputable” shop.
You are quite opinionated but uneducated on the subject.
13 Pro max - 14 pro max doesn’t come in that color.
Terrible advice. A reputable repair shop is perfectly safe and wise rather than paying a premium at Apple or buying a new device for no reason.
Dynamic Island and 5x optical zoom are about the only differences you’ll notice. Keep your 13 pro max, its an excellent device still.
You have much bigger problems in life if that button drives you insane…
Ignore the foolish comments. Step one in your situation, since you can track it on Find My, is to call the police and work with them to track it down and recover it. If that fails, AppleCare+ and report it as theft/stolen.
If you live in the USA, you can get a brand new iPhone 11 from straight talk for $199, buy one month of service for $45, let the month expire without renewing, and after 61 days from activation it will be unlocked and available to use in any carrier.
Literally copied my post. lol.
There are options such as using the screen time /parental control feature in iOS, but it has flaws… there are ways to tap links in areas of apps such as an FAQ section that can allow access to the internet even if safari is timed out or blocked.
Get them a dumb phone for calls only? Only allow smartphone use when supervised?
How is this difficult….
Why didn’t you get the SE3 if you feel so strongly about that size and home button retention?
