i rock an iphone 7 and it's solid, battery life is fine as i'm not glued to the phone 12 hours a day. the phone is so slim so light and everything works and i still get security updates.

whole body is alumimium no shoddy weak glass. no need to baby it as even if I break it ,I could probably get another one for like $50. and it's ironic, the one i'm using and abusing and not babying? it's FLAWLESS, not ONE scratch. just one mini paint dent that probably came like that from the factory!

and no, magsafe, wireless charging, face id, and "super duper camera" is not essential for me.

​

to each his own!

well it's a couple of years old by now so a new battery will refresh it back to brand new condition (assuming you get a good quality used which looks cosmetically good and has no problems). This would be the best value purchase IMHO - to be honest my old iphone XR at health 82% was still usable, just had to charge it more frequently.
