iPhone 12 vs 13

id go with 12 cause i don't think there's much difference between the 2, but then again it's preference & if you don't mind spending an extra £100 then why not i guess

What should I pick? £100 difference.

I really like the mint colour of the 12, but apparently the camera is so much better on 13?

The cameras have tiny differences between them, other than that it's literally the same phone

Why waste money on a ridiculously expensive iPhone 12/13 when you can buy a second hand Samsung for £20 which does literally the same thing.
Even better, quit destroying your mental health social media (assuming you use it) and buy a trusty Nokia from 2007

Yeah you probably wouldn't even notice the camera difference tbf, i'd probably pick based on colour

why must every phone related thread have a post like this? if you don't want to spend much on a phone that's your perogative but it doesn't make you a better person

This is 2022, we don’t need old-generation mindsets controlling how we live in this day and age.

Haha, I'm 17.

I didn't think for a moment that I'm a better person because I don't have the latest Iphone. I just dislike this culture of short term trends and disposable fashion, spending money on things that are so unnecessary.
I don't know if this applies to the OP but in general there are few habits that are more wasteful and unnecessary than throwing away older items that still work to get the latest version.

you have no idea why op is buying a new phone though
i am fiercely opinionated on the subject of e-waste and repairing your own devices but there is literally no reason to cast judgement on op based on the information they have given us alone

The only thing I know is that they are struggling to pick between possibly the two most expensive phones on the market and I am judging them for that. I don't know if they have a phone or if they need a good camera for work or whatever. I just see it as a silly waste of money regardless when there are options 1/20 of the price that do the same thing.
Maybe I'm missing something but they might as well spend £1000 on gold encrusted underwear.

there are a few reasons why they might be deciding between these phones:
- longevity/software support
- iOS
- they have other apple devices and want to keep the synergy
- they need the camera for xyz reason
- they need the processing power for xyz reason

Why would they need the latest software? Virus protection? I know plenty of old phone owners who have never had any problems, it's about how and where you share your personal details. Prevention. Common sense is a stronger enemy of viruses than the latest software.
Connectivity to other apple devices and the IOS system can both happen with an older model iPhone, buying an older one will also reduce waste.
You can get a much better camera and a perfectly functioning phone for half the price of an iPhone 13
People who need processing power for things get a laptop or a PC, not a tiny phone. If they can afford an iPhone 13 and need processing power, they'd be better off buying a cheap phone and a gaming PC.
