Should i get the iphone 13 or 14? (One year)

I know it sounds weird in 2026. But i'll need one of them for a year and then sell it for something like a 17 next year.

Main concern- IOS 27 performance and resale value

iPhone 14 not updating to iOS 18.7.8.

is my only option to stay on 18.7.7 or update to 26.6?

have an iPhone 14 on iOS 18.7.7 and tried updating to 18.7.8, the update downloads but not going through. I tried: deleting the update and downloading it again; and factory reset but none seems to work. my bf got an iPhone 15 on iOS 17(?) straight from the box and it updated to iOS 18.7.8 pretty easily. so how come mine dont?? I dont get it.

problems with iphone’s audio quality of videos at concert

hi! i recently went to a concert (iphone 14 user) and of course i took videos too; when i went back home & rewatched the videos i noticed that the audio of ALL videos sucked real bad… it sounded muffled and so far away. i was very upset about this, especially because it never happened before, anyone knows how can i solve this issue?

ps: i wear hearing aids & they are always connected to my phone with bluetooth if it might be relevant to the cause (i wanted to share a video but it won’t let me idk why)

Been using my iphone14 for 2.5 years and just replaced the battery. Will easily run it for atleast 2 years more.

iPhone 14 issue

Never thought I’d use Reddit, but here i am. Hi. I have an about 2 year old iPhone 14, and just about 2 1/2 days ago, my phone’s charging port started smelling like this mix of grape and frosting. I really haven’t seen any other signs of battery leaking except for that smell. Any idea of what else it could be? Am i missing something about this?

Downgrade iPhone 14

My wife has an iPhone running 26.6. The phone and OS are too complicated for her. All she wants is Photos, Messages, Facebook and her Contacts. What’s the oldest model we could set up for her?

guess I will forever have a 14 on iOS 16…

bought this in april brand new sealed in box. it’s on iOS 16.0.3. I moved places and forgot about it, and then yesterday I tried updating to iOS 18.7.8, but apparently Apple stopped signing those awhile ago. even I was late to DelayOTA. now it’s as if I got her way back in 2022. still fresh on iOS 16. only downside is I can’t seem to get it to connect to my carrier (AT&T) so it’s wifi use only.

if anyone can help me figure out how to update without updating to iOS 26, please let me know. otherwise, how much do these go for? it has 128gb.

apple not letting me update to iOS 18.7.8?

I have 2 iPhone 14s. one is running iOS 18.7.7, and the other is running iOS 16.03. I am trying to update both on iOS 18.7.8, they are downloaded, but can’t seem to go past the verifying page and then says it’s unavailable. I am NOT updating to iOS 26, so why is apple forcing us to? this is just ridiculous.

Battery

Got a new battery on May 4 in my precious yellow iPhone 14 that I'm hoping to run at least another two years if it can keep up, in three months the battery Health dropped 4% but it took two months to drop at all. So I'm down to 96% battery health and no you don't have to do iOS updates for the number to drop. It's dropped without doing updates! I've seen some review videos on YouTube that say one percent a month is normal. But this is a little more.

The original battery lasted 6 full months before it dropped to 99%. Now I know there's depletion with use and age, but I'm not doing anything differently so it might be that I got a battery that sat on a shelf for one or two years because maybe there's not as many 14s getting new batteries. It was done at a verified Apple repair outlet, London Drugs in Canada.
