The most budget-friendly iPhones worth spending money on in 2024 have been named

A new iPhone of the latest model is quite expensive, and even the brand's fans argue whether its price is justified. However, if you take an older version of Apple's smartphone, you can get most of its advantages for much more modest money.

IGN has compiled a list of iPhone models that, as of 2024, retain quite decent characteristics. And at the same time, they cost adequate money.

iPhone SE - the best cheap iPhone

The iPhone SE was released in 2022, but it is still the perfect device for those who want to take advantage of Apple's quality. Yes, you'll have to accept a somewhat outdated design with thick bezels, a Touch ID Home button, and a dim IPS display. However, the compact design makes the phone perfectly comfortable, and one-handed navigation is as usable as possible.

Inside the device, you'll find the Apple A15 Bionic chip with its six-core CPU, quad-core GPU, and 16-core neural engine, the same chip as the iPhone 13. This means high performance for almost any task. It's even capable of doubling as a gaming smartphone, but still take into account the dim screen and slow pixel response time.

iPhone 14 - the best cameras on the available model

Almost 2 years have passed since the release of the iPhone 14, but it is still a very powerful model. The phone has an initial storage capacity of 128 GB and is powered by the incredible Apple A15 chip. Thanks to this 6-core processor and 5-core GPU package, there is not a single program that it can't handle. And the iPhone 14 can still be purchased new and connected to the Apple Care+ program. Another nice feature is one of Apple's most advanced cameras, which take great pictures.

iPhone 13 Mini - the best compact cheap iPhone

Are you comfortable using a small smartphone? Then the iPhone 13 from Apple will fully cover your needs. It is equipped with an Apple A15 Bionic chip, 128 GB of storage, and 12-megapixel and 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle cameras for perfect photos. At the same time, the diagonal of the screen of this smartphone is only 5.4 inches.

iPhone 12 - the best budget iPhone

These days, the iPhone 12 can be hard to buy new, but the A14 Bionic chip it has on it keeps the price down significantly, while still packing a decent amount of power. In fact, just about everything about this phone is almost as good as newer models. It has a 6.1-inch Liquid Retina HD display, as well as 12-megapixel wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle cameras. Even a second-hand smartphone will still be efficient to use.

iPhone 11 - the best ultra-cheap iPhone

If access to 5G networks is not crucial to you, you may well be satisfied with the iPhone 11. For less than $300, you get a phone with a still very capable A13 Bionic processor and a fantastic-looking 6.1-inch Liquid Retina HD display. You also get two 12-megapixel cameras (wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle) capable of recording 4K video at 60 frames per second. The rounded design may seem a bit outdated, but it is quite ergonomic - this body fits comfortably in the hand.
