Does not being able to update the phone to the latest OS cause any issues?

            Chanuka, 13 Jan 2019Isn't it useful for a secondary phone in 2019Yes, but not for a power user. I know the 5c (which has the same specs) is pretty slow on apps like snapchat

              Best and compact iPhone to keep tension free size easily fits in any pocket would recommend if u want an iPhone but don't want tensions attached to it it's light fast and still support every basic app.

                          For who ask about battery im at 10.3.3 (last support from apple because 32 bit os), my usage heavy browsing and social media full 100% in the morning and 20~30 at noon, but for light usage i think it will last for day not night but till evening i think
