The times I was caseless my phone fell out of my pocket and shattered on concrete. And since then I’ve had a case on because my phone has continued to fall out of my pockets.
Another reason is because the glass gets very cold in the winter and super hot in the summer.

Reply to How do I make my iPhone last? by Equivalent-Junket887
I have found that my phone starts to feel real slow I do hard resets. If that doesn’t work then every few months I will plug my phone in my computer. I will put in dfu mode. Then I will restore and update. This will reinstall the whole OS and erase everything (back up data to the cloud). Then I will setup my phone as new and not restore from backup.
Another option would be to get a new battery as the device is anywhere between 3 and 5 years old and batteries degrade. Old batteries will slow performance down.
Service provider maps are also fairly misleading. Depending on what carrier you have service may vary. I’ve had times where one bar has been a very good rock solid connection and 5 bars be completely useless.
Lastly perhaps a newer phone. An iPhone 12 or newer. Apple replaced the intel modems with Qualcomm modems and they are much better. This ignores 5G. Sometimes it’s better other times not. I am on AT&T and 5G is less than half the speed of LTE(5GE). The only way to get access to all the bands on AT&T is to have an iPhone 14 series or S23 series.

One nice thing would be to have the settings for the app also in the app.

Best Buy no longer sells new unlocked iPhones unless they are refurbished models. If you go to a best buy and pay in full for an iPhone it will be carrier locked. If you plan to purchase an unlocked iPhone go strait to an Apple Store.
I would go back to Best Buy and try to return the phone. Then go to apple and pay in full or use iPhone upgrade program to finance it if you have good credit.

Very generous say one party. The most climate friendly president has given more oil/fracking permits than George W. Bush.

Reply to Is it safe to use low power mode all the time? by A2A2376
You can use it all the time. My phone lives in low power. An iPhone 13 in low power is similar to an iPhone X with full performance.
For battery life, 5G eats power, so does background app refresh as well as location services.
