What's the best iPhone available? Or more specifically, which iPhone is best for you? Should you buy one of Apple's new iPhones - the iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus - or would an older model, such as the iPhone SE, iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus, be a better(and cheaper) option? Should you go second-hand and pick up an older unit such as the iPhone 6 or 6 Plus, or even the iPhone 5s? Or perhaps it's worth waiting a few months for Apple's update to the iPhone SE, expected in March, or even the iPhone 8, expected next September.
In this article we examine all the options for prospective iPhone buyers: the five models of iPhone currently available, the differences between them in terms of specs, design, features and price, and the model that's right for each category of buyer. We also look at older models of iPhone; advising owners of these iPhones what their best upgrade path is, and addressing the question of whether you should buy one of these older iPhones second-hand. Finally we talk about storage capacities and colour options.
Whatever you need to know about choosing your next iPhone, we've got the answer here.
