Choosing between iPhone 11 and 13 mini for school and Minecraft

Hello again ~ Just checking. You’re not going to be able to buy a new iPhone 11 so if battery life is what means most to you …then I would rule that out. An iPhone 13 may be best if those are your only two choices. I would urge caution if buying from anyone but Apple in any case. Click on below and take a look..

Hello once more~ Then the iPhone 13 mini as it’s the newer model of the two. Make sure to read the link that I posted for you if buying outside of Apple. Take care and enjoy whatever you decide to purchase.

Oh, would CEX second tech work?

I don’t know what that is, but if it’s affiliated with CEX I would not buy it. Again it’s not an Apple Authorized Reseller and I’ve read plenty of issues with their iPhones, even as you experienced. Please take a look at the link above which provides a list of Apple Authorized Resellers in your area.

Hello~ Are you 9 years old?

If the screen size between those two models don't matter to you, and you care about the processor and battery life instead, the iPhone 13 mini should be a better option. The battery is the same between those two models, but the 13 mini has a better chip which should help with better performance and graphics. And considering its newer it should last longer and be supported for more iOS versions to come. In addition it has some new features, such as MagSafe charging.

I took a quick look at Australia's Certified Refurbished Shop, for some reason they don't sell iPhones at all. You are left seeing if nearby Apple Authorized Resellers have that model in stock, as Apple no longer sells that model.

But be careful as Katana-San states and don't purchase from any unauthorized resellers. Many people end up with a damaged, defective, Activation Locked, carrier locked, etc device. We see it here daily. Do yourself a favor and keep your hard earned money.

Would CEX be good? I got my last phone there, tho it almost exploded due to bad battery.

From what I've read online, CEX is not an Apple Authorized Reseller, meaning you should not purchase an iPhone from them.

I tried the link, but it’s American with the second hand Apple products, I’m in Australia Brisbane, is there an Australian one?

There is an Apple Certified Refurbished Shop for Australia, but they don't sell iPhones, for some reason we don't know.
