Differences between iPhone models

When choosing an iPhone, it's important to consider the differences between the models. Newer models like the iPhone 14, 15, and 16 offer the latest technologies, such as advanced cameras, fast chips, and 5G connectivity. Older models like the iPhone 7, 8, and SE are often more affordable but have fewer advanced features.

In terms of screen size, it ranges from 4.7 inches on compact models like the iPhone SE to 6.7 inches on the iPhone 15/16 Pro Max. The resolution and screen technology has also improved over the years, from LCD to OLED and Super Retina XDR displays.

The latest A-series chips, such as the A15 and A16 Bionic, offer superior performance for games, photos, and video editing. But for basic tasks, an older A11 or A13 chip is still more than sufficient.

Camera comparison

One of the biggest differences between iPhone models is the cameras. The iPhone 15 Pro features an advanced triple-camera system with a telephoto lens, a wide-angle lens, and an ultra-wide lens. This offers tremendous flexibility for photographers. The iPhone 11 has a dual camera system with a wide-angle and ultra-wide angle, while older models like the iPhone 7 and 8 have a single camera.

New features like Night Mode, Deep Fusion, and ProRAW photography are only available on recent models like the iPhone 12 and later. Video options like 4K HDR and Cinematic Mode are also reserved for the latest devices.

Durability and battery life

For those who want to use an iPhone for extended periods, durability and battery life are key considerations. Newer models have a sturdier Ceramic Shield display and better water resistance. Battery life has also improved, especially on the iPhone 13 and later, thanks to more efficient chips and larger batteries.

Refurbished iPhones from leapp are also a sustainable choice. They get a second life and help reduce e-waste. And thanks to thorough inspection and new batteries, they'll perform excellently for years to come.

Price and availability

Of course, price plays a major role in choosing an iPhone. The latest iPhone 15 models are the most expensive, followed by the iPhone 14 and 13. Older models like the iPhone 12, 11, and SE are already much more affordable.

For the best of both worlds, refurbished iPhones are ideal. You benefit from many modern features at a lower price than a new one. At leapp, we have all generations of iPhones in stock, whether you're looking for a compact iPhone 8 or a high-end iPhone 14 Pro.

Whichever model suits you best, at leapp you're guaranteed to find the iPhone that perfectly suits your needs and budget. With free delivery, reliable service, and flexible payment options, making the right choice is easy.
