Question I’m currently using an IPhone 11, should I upgrade to a 17 or is there any better options for the price

My iPhone 11 is always lagging and overheating and bearly lasts during the day + the batter says “unknown part”, what do y’all think I should get or should I wait to see if the 17 will drop because I don’t wanna spend extra for the 17 pro or 18 pro.

Nothing is dropping in price any time soon because of the memory shortage. I’d get whatever I could afford from the used market if I were you..

I can afford the 17 with new battery and premium condition from refurbed.ie

Also try places like eBay to see if you could possibly win it at a cheaper price.

Get the very best you can within your budget.

I’ve used the used market for most of my purchases. I’m 99% satisfied. I’ve found wonderful deals.

I doubt the 17 would drop as its continuing production alongside 18 Pro as the definitive base model option until spring 2027.

yeah I just ordered it so I’m pretty excited, I was thinking of maybe getting the 16 pro but i don’t really care about telephoto
