I just upgraded to a 13, but the trade-in was only $80 and I thought I might find something better to do with it than just get $80 back, so I’d love suggestions. Remember, it doesn’t have cellular access anymore, just wifi. Does anyone have any good ideas for what to do with it? A friend suggested a dedicated GPS for my car, which I would obviously have to upgrade on occasion, but I can do that from my garage. Slightly annoying, but possibly useful. Any other ideas?
Yes, I know, throw it out or use it as a coaster. Ha ha. Very droll.
I walked into an iPhone repair shop when my old iPhone’s battery went puffy and they offered me $100 cash. That made me very happy!
TV for action figures?
Fb marketplace is a pretty good place to sell phones, probably can’t get full price but half is not unreasonable, definitely more than $80

iPhone XR
I am using a 2017 mid-range Android phone with a custom ROM and I’m very happy. The XR came out in 2018. Don’t tell me that iPhones hold their value for longer.

WTF?! My grandma is still using a Nokia 3410 from 2003 and nobody expects 2G to shut down anytime soon. Did you breach the terms of your celluar contract?
If the OS is too old, just go to xda-developers.com, search for a ROM for your mo… oh wait, you bought into the phone brand that ages faster for this very reason.
I got a new phone. So the SIM is now assigned to a new phone. Why would the old phone still have cellular service?
I could, but the battery is dying, hence me replacing it. It’s not very good as a cell phone if I have to leave it plugged in all the time. However, other people have made good suggestions. I’m not sure what your problem is.
Recycle it, if you can’t figure out what to do with it.
