I must have been living under a rock for the past few years since I am still the proud owner of an iPhone 6s, while most of the world has moved on with more modern, up-to-date models. I can remember when the 6s launched almost a decade ago and how popular it was with Millennials and Generation Z at the time (although I actually didn't get my current one until August 2020), but at some point this year, support for the model will end and I will need to replace my device. I am looking to buy another iPhone, since I'm used to the interface and would like to be able to back up my apps and files like-for-like on a new device.
Aside from the technological support, many physical features of the iPhone have also changed. From the removal of the headphone jack (I must be the only person on public transport to still use cable headphones), lightning port and home button on most models to the addition of more sophisticated cameras and USB-C, the latest model looks almost unrecognisable from even that of a decade ago, let alone the original 2007 iPhone.
I'm not looking for the latest model at all, but something which is a step up from what I currently have (more storage, better camera, longer battery life), while future proofed to last at least four years, would be ideal. Maybe something like an iPhone 12 or 2022 SE. The only bugbear is that the latter is the only model which still has Touch ID, and I'm not sure if I can get my head around Face ID just yet (although should be able to once I've had a bit of practice!).
