What refurbished iPhone is acceptable?
My teen daughter wants to buy a refurbished iPhone. She is leaning towards the 13 mini because she wants a small iphone on a budget. I recently bought the same one for me (in my case, because I have dexterity issues and a bigger phone keeps slipping from my hands). It's not an amazing phone. It heats up a bit and we all know what iphone batteries last, which is relevant also because she now has a Redmi 8 Pro. But for me is enough. I just want a phone with iOS (because I own a Macbook), storage and that fits in my hand.
Should I advise her to get a different model?
(she thinks she has a limited budget because this will be her first purchase with her 1st salary but we are planning to help her a bit in the purchase so that she can have more storage and a more recent model)
Also, what iphones are really not worth buying now because they are not updating soon?
TIA
