If it still works, then you can use it as a music device or as a secondary backup phone in case your new one dies or is missing.

Or you can still keep using it and replace the battery and the speakers. Don't worry about the iOS versions. You just need to be more careful when going online.

My iPhone 7 is still going strong and I don't intend on replacing it. 86% battery health.

I had my first bad experience with them earlier this week with my new 14 Pro. I put my first one on immediately after removing the factory screen cover in a room that had the shower running for 10 minutes, and somehow got a big speck of dust in the prime screen viewing area. No big deal, there’s two in the box! The second one had a big shatter on it that was only visible after application. Overnighted another two boxes from Amazon and the third time was the charm, but for sure sending that first box back.

You can’t keep using the 6s. We all know this, including you. And, you’re right, it IS pretty sad to think that you’re losing your first device. But from a security standpoint, you can’t keep it much longer. You just can’t.

I think you either want the SE or the 13 mini. (The 13 mini is almost identical to the 12 but has the better battery life.)

I still use Iphone 6. I don’t wanna spend that much money on a new Iphone. I’ve replaced the battery and it lasts for around 4 hours of screen on time. Yes, it’s slow. But I use it only for texting, listening to podcasts and social media browsing. For everything else I have my Ipad 8

Nobody can decide if YOU need a new phone.

Does your 6s do everything you need it to? Would a new phone with new features improve your day to day? Is your 6s inhibiting you from doing certain things? Personally, newer phones are way better and more fluid, so the answer is clear to me.
