Big or small

One of the most obvious differences between the many iPhones is their screen sizes.

But if were looking at recent models, then there are only really three different sizes to consider.

At the top, theres the likes of theiPhone 15 Pro MaxandiPhone 15 Plus, which have 6.7-inch screens.

Thats big, but still smaller than some Android phones like theSamsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Do you need a telephoto camera?

In which case, you could potentially pick a cheaper non-Pro model.

Does refresh rate matter to you?

That lower refresh rate makes scrolling less smooth.

However, some people find this more noticeable than others.

If youre aware that refresh rate matters to you then confirm you choose a 120Hz iPhone.

But otherwise, smaller models like the standard iPhone 15 should still be fine.

Storage capacity

One final thing to consider is how much storage you need.

iPhones dont have microSD card slots, so the built-in storage is all you get.

Whether you need more than that really depends on how you plan to use your phone.

If so, then you should probably go for at least 256GB, and maybe more.
