In August 2018 I got an iPhone 6 32gb 95% health for CA$250 used it until September 2022 it had 83% left 28/32gb used and I went for an iPhone XR 128gb 88% health for CA$310 with case and screen protector included. It’s almost November 2026 still using XR it’s at 78% health, thinking of buying a new phone.

I decided go for my old pattern get a used 4 year old iPhone. So I looked at a 14. For the same storage, worse condition, worse battery health it’s $500-$600 which is ridiculous. I was thinking of 17e it’s more desirable than a 14 it’s base it 256gb 48mp camera usb type c, newer phone, 8gb ram. They were CA$900 at launch now they’re CA$1000 but like $850 ish open box. I was thinking of waiting Black Friday for a better deal like $600-$750 for an open box/new 17e. Is this a good plan?

Like I’ve noticed it’s very different from a XR (more than twice the storage, usb-c (it will use same charger as my tablet, keyboard, mouse, headphones, etc.), 5G, twice the storage, MagSafe, better screen, better battery (26 hours apparently), better front camera, better rear camera. However it looks visually the same, and I kind of wanted the same upgrade experience I got from the 6 to xr idk how different it will be. Has anyone who went from XR to 17e found it significantly different. The thing is tho the Dynamic Island phones with a proper storage upgrade and battery health are just as much as 17e used

The xr isn’t too bad Rn. Battery life is worse it does like 6 hours in a day which isn’t great icl, but it’s not that slow 95gb/128gb used 78% health. I was in a lecture hall and tried taking picture of whiteboard from front row my friend in the back row with a 14 got a way clearer picture. So yeah, thoughts? Should I meet thugging the xr out?

Celebrate with us if you still use iPhone XR in 2026

I can charge my iphone xr just fine. But I try to plug in my wired earbuds it doesn't work. Tried resetting and everything. Nothing is working. Has anyone experienced anything like that? I'm on ios 18.7.10. Occasionally when its locked after plugging the earbuds a notification pops up saying unlock phone to use accessories. But then I unlock it and nothing happens.

Bought this because i really miss the ios 18 and for a secondary phone

Zmieniam potłuczonego iPhone’a 14 Pro Max na iPhone’a Xr, czy to dobra decyzja?

I have an iPhone 13 now, but sometimes I genuinely prefer the way photos look on my old XR haha
Anyone else feel the same about older iPhone cameras?

I'm sharing this after seeing so many comments from people saying this started happening after the latest iOS update on their Xr, just in case it's happening to anyone else and they have any ideas.

I'm not sure if it's been happening to me since then either, because I always like to keep my device updated whenever a new version comes out. But this is really driving me crazy. I even tried uninstalling Safari and reinstalling it...

Looks like I'm going to end up having to switch to Edge or Chrome.

hard restrart doesnt work and it just seems to light a lil bit shown in the video.. pls help

I’ve had my iPhone XR for a while now, but just the day before, I restarted it cause none of my apps would work, even though it was working before it happened, and then all of a sudden, I couldn’t connect to wifi or look at my apps or anything. What do I do?

I did it. Finally got iPhone 17 after 2.5 years of using Xr.

Thank you XR.

Been loving mine for 8 years now, just wanted to know what everyone does for theirs to see how else I can take care of mine:)

Fixed my iPhone XR's broken screen yesterday. I bought this phone back in 2019 and it served me well until I got bored of it, so I took off the case and screen protector and let fate do its work. Sure enough, my charger cable snagged on something while I was walking at work and the phone slammed straight into the concrete floor. I upgraded to a 13 Pro after that, and recently a 15 Pro.

Still, I have a soft spot for this phone. It was my first big boy purchase, paid for with money I saved from my first job in high school. At this point I'm convinced it's going to outlive me 😂

The kit was around $20 on Amazon with tools included, and the whole thing took me about an hour. It was relatively easy, though I kind of half-assed mine. If you're doing this on an XR you actually use as your daily phone, take your time, be really gentle, and follow the instructions and a YouTube video closely. Otherwise it's cake.
Might do the 🔋and back glass next just for fun.

I just was charging my phone when this box appeared on the top of my screen. I tried restarting and it didn’t go away. Note this phone has been used since 2018 when it first came out.

Hi and thank you in advance. I want to get an iphone xr mainly because I've been wanting it for months now. The 11 is just a "go 2". I'm getting the 256GB tho.

I want the XR because I'm into vintage aesthetic. Anything thing I should know or avoid before purchasing the XR? Or should I even purchase it?

Switched to iphone 16 & 17 last year but I know it in my heart of heart, no other iphone will replace my love for my XR. It was my first firsthand phone that my father had gifted me in 2019. only 64 gb but it sustained. It could no longer run properly and had developed cracks which compelled me to purchase a new one. Feels like a time capsule. Still works fine though

and which colour was the least spotted ??? Imo i liked red and coral the best but found blue ugly 😗

followed instructions told by other people: keep it facing down on hard surface like table when charging or not in use
