Mobile phones from Apple have always stood out for their quality materials and durability.

Perfectly, if we have the latest model and we keep and care for it, they can last more than 5 years at full capacity. Normally iPhone usually stop updating iOS after 5 years. This does not mean that they can continue to be used for at least one or two more years. The fluidity of the operating system and the hardware they have, make their "usability" quite good for years.

Normally, 2-3 years after the launch of an iPhone,you notice that they lose fluidity when using them, but they are still mobile phones that work quite well .

Therefore, the useful life of an iPhone, the latest model, well preserved, can be 5-6 years.

When to change iPhone?:

iPhone 14 PRO and PRO MAX

To answer this question, we have created a classification in which we explain why changing iPhone every "x" years (always starting from the day of its release) :

  • Every year: If you don't have money problems and want to be up to date, there is no doubt that you should change your mobile every year.
  • Every 2 years: In the past, every 2 years Apple changed the design of the mobile. Currently it is every 2 years, when great improvements are added to the terminals. It is the period of time that we choose to change our iPhone.
  • Every 3 years: He probably has more than one scratch by now. It will work a little slower. The battery will not have the autonomy it should. It will not have features that all mobile phones will have incorporated as standard and that will facilitate its use. If you have saved, don't hesitate, it's the best time to switch from iPhone.
  • Every 4 years: If it makes you mad that your iPhone "laguees" (goes in fits and starts), let it lose some fluency in its functioning, it is the ideal moment to change. Normally it is the fourth year when you begin to notice a drop in performance. It is not that it is noticeable but the battery (if you have not changed it), the storage space begin to show symptoms of exhaustion.
  • Every 5 years: If you don't want your device to become obsolete, the fifth year is normally when the company with the bitten apple stops updating its terminals anymore ancient.It will continue to work, but you won't be able to update iOS and you won't be able to enjoy the advantages and new features that new versions of the operating system and some applications bring.
  • Every 6 Years: The iPhone continues to work like a charm, as long as it has been well maintained. At APPerlas we think that the sixth year is the maximum to hold one of these terminals. This is the time when many apps stop working as they are no longer compatible with your iOS .

More durability for well-maintained iPhones:

Before concluding the article, we want to make clear what we consider to be a well-preserved iPhone.

For us it is a terminal that has always been protected with a case and tempered glass screen, that has not received severe blows, that has not gotten wet if your terminal does not allow it (the most modern iPhones are waterproof but it is not advisable to submerge them more than 0.5-1 meter), that it has been restored to factory settings at least once every two years, that it has been properly maintained as , for example, the change of battery, etc .
