Best cheapest iPhone?

For sure, it’s just a very jarring experience to have to hold your finger all the time to authenticate things that are just transparent with FaceID.

Coming from Android it would feel like a serious step backwards.

Performance is fine sure, but user experience is greatly marred.

And I say this purely because I have an iPad with TouchID still in the mix and the entire usage experience is tarnished by it.

It’s really not that bad, it’s also a great size, it’s nice not having half a brick in the pocket.

It’s amazing how iPhones hold their value, mid level iPhones from 2 generations ago are still selling for R10k+, with Samsung you often get their current gen flagship phones for that kind of money just a few months after release.

Very happy with my SE 2022. Of course I’d prefer a 14 Pro, but I can’t have everything I want.
 
is this a good deal?

Yes I also think this is some trolling attempt.
But if serious, the best bet will be a normal iPhone 12. You can get them on Carb for around 8-9k. The bit of upgrades the 12 Pro have is not worth the 3-4K extra the guys ask secondhand.
If you a heavy user on photos etc then 128gb.
Then you will have a pretty decent iPhone that did not break the bank and you have some left over for maybe replacing the battery at iStore and not some Chinese shop.
 
14 Plus not a huge success for Apple. I got a vanilla 13 256Gb for R17000 and something recently. Wasn't even the cheapest I now discover.

Found one on Facebook for R15k but the guy's email address is [email protected] so I'm a bit weary. Also doesn't come with the box.

Well I specifically went for the SE. I’m not a heavy phone user so its in my pocket most of the time and I am used to the home button and not in the mood to learn new gestures and stuff. I hate big phones. So it was either the SE or the mini. Mini have better screen but SE had home button and way cheaper

Exactly don’t buy via any other shop but Apple or the second hand istore …

Buying and trading iPhones for a very long time I know this to well …

If you know a friend or someone that you actually know then why not but other people it’s a 50/50 ..

Second hand istore has some crazy deals and I’d say better value

If I can say a iPhone 13 or 11 will be a good deal if you get it for a nice price depending on what you looking for ..

iPhone 14 or something isn’t worth it unless you go for the pro

Any iPhone 14 if it’s a normal one or plus is exactly the same as an iPhone 13 Pro … I’d say if you get an iPhone 13 Pro for a good price that’s the iPhone I’d consider getting …

It was discontinued because it was competition for the new iPhone 14
