Russians have been advised to abandon five iPhone smartphone models as these devices have flaws that make them unsuitable for use in 2023. This was said by tech bloggers on the portal. “Executioner”.
The weakest side, according to bloggers, is the iPhone SE (2020). “It has an outdated design like the iPhone 8, with a small 4.7-inch IPS screen and thick bezels, a weak seven-megapixel front camera and only a 12-megapixel main camera,” the authors wrote.
Apple’s second attempt at turning it into an affordable smartphone – the iPhone SE (2022) – tech bloggers also said it wasn’t the best option to buy. “The tool still looks old against the background of competitors, it barely copes with shooting in low light due to the lack of night mode and keeps the charge poorly,” said the executioner.
The iPhone 11 from 2019 has an IPS display, far behind the OLED displays found in the newer models. In addition, the smartphone has an A13 Bionic processor, which “despite the nifty system optimization, cannot cope with tasks so quickly.”
According to tech bloggers, the compact iPhone 12 mini is more comfortable in size, but has “a humiliatingly small memory and weak autonomy in the basic configuration.” The authors also noted that the price tag for the most modern smartphone is too high.
Bloggers found two significant drawbacks in the iPhone 12: in the basic configuration, the smartphone has negligible memory – only 64 GB, and for the simplest version in Russia they ask for 51 thousand rubles. According to them, it is more profitable to immediately buy the iPhone 13.
