Could it ? Yea but with the outdated hardware many of the newer features of the OS may not function well. Likely drain your battery at a significant pace and slow down your phone. Also I’m sure they see the number of people still using an older phone and determine if the user base is big enough to keep supporting.

So weird, I think I have a similar issue but the green/white hue is different on my phone. The phone itself and touch feedback seem to work but I can't read anything on the screen. No recent damage and it just began a few hours a go. I was using it, put it down, and picked it back up to a screen similar to this

Obviously! I just bought mine a 2 weeks ago and its been great, the phone is ultra smooth and can handle anything i throw at it, even tried playing NBA2K23 Arcade edition and the experience was amazing, big step up in performance from the 11 pro max i was using especially with that 120hz display which makes a huge difference. And the camera is on a whole another level, it’s outright gorgeous. Lastly the phone has an A+ battery life and i was able to get 9+ hours SOT with heavy use (no gaming), i had to stay up all night to drain the battery and see the maximum SOT i can get which was 9+ hours on the regular 13 Pro. I highly recommend it.

The high refresh rate Pro Motion 120hz screen on the 13 Pro absolutely DOMINATES the 60hz panel on the 14… plus the regular 14 has the same exact processor as the 13 anyway so it’s pointless to get the 14… the high refresh rate alone is way better and more fluid.. even swiping for a minute on my gf’s 60hz iPhone feels choppy and crappy.. On top of that you get the more durable and premium build with the matte back glass that almost never scratches, stainless steel frame instead of aluminum on the 14 regular, and you get more versatility out of the 3 cameras on the 13 pro. The 13 pro hands down beats the absolute crap out of the regular 14’s. Definitely go with that one. Plus the 13 pro is still gonna get updates and be completely useable and fast till 2028 or later… don’t get the 14 lol unless you get the Pro.. either 13 pro or 14 pro but definitely not the 14 regular version.

Mini has Face ID and screen code to unlock phone, larger screen. sE has fingerprint sensor/code unlock and a smaller screen.

13 Mini and SE 2022 both have good battery life for the average user. If you are on social media all day, streaming video and playing games, I’ve yet to find a phone that doesn’t have a “shit battery”.

I did it mainly for the promotion display. Was planning to keep my 12 pro max for another year but I used someone’s 13 pro and wondered why everything moved a lot smoother. Found out about the 120hz and decided I would sell my 12 and upgrade when the 14 pro max came out. Haven’t regretted it.

They also have some in store that don’t show up on the website for pickup. Essentially, if they have like one or two units then it doesn’t show up and it can only be bought through walk-in. If you ask one of them salespeople to check if another store has a certain model in stock they can see the few units that don’t show up on the official website. Then from there you can call up the store that has it and have them make a reservation for it for you. When I did this (the employee will not call for you) they told me the reservation is good for 3 hours and after that it gets released back into normal stock.
