I think Apple iPhone is a 2nd phone, not my daily driver, as my primary phone is a Samsung phone.

I used Apple products before. I have got M1 Mac Mini, iPad Pro 2018 and an old MacBook Pro 2015. I do not use an iPhone before, get into the apple system as a 2nd device, and I know the layout already from iPad some of the features.

I brought the Apple AirPods Pro 1st generation last Friday.

I had treated myself to AirPods. I treat myself to an iPhone for my birthday end of the week as a gift; I hope so, possibly.

A first-time iPhone and an AirPods user as well, I want in ages, and I want an iPhone as well as a 2nd phone.

I like Apple iPhone SE and the iPhone seven, something high; anything is suitable for my budget. I don't know and want to spend too much. I need it to work on iOS 16, macOS Ventura, Monterey and iPadOS 16. For my devices.

Please advise me of your recommendation for What are your thoughts?

Thanks

As a secondary phone, a SE would probably do just fine. A iPhone 7 is way to old.

I’d get an 11, not too old and still have a few years of updates ahead

Thanks, I am thinking that. I am not buying a iPhone 7. About an iPhone 8? iPhone SE 1st generation too old?

I recommend iPhone 11 if you don’t need 5g

If you have about $750 to spend I’d recommend 13 pro for 5g and 120hz refresh rate screen.

I’d say get the SE if it’s as a second phone

1st Gen SE (2016) is EOL. SE 2nd Gen (2020) or 3rd Gen (2022) is supported

Thanks for that. The iPhone 11 sounds interesting. I possibly need 5G for future proof.

Thanks for that. I like to get an SE, and I want to.
