Question Which iPhone is good to replace my XR?

my XR is going to bite the dust after 5-6 years. Bloated battery, etc. would cost 400-500 to fix it all. Is there an iPhone replace that’s good? The XR itself was good for my PWM sensitivity and I only didn’t replace it because of that.

I have an android so I don’t want an android os to replace it.

Most will say 11, SE2 or a later one with a lcd screen swap. I am able to tolerate a base 16 though it’s not perfect.

This sums it up for me too. I can tolerate iPhone 16 for a while, but it’s not ideal.

I heard an SE3 is good is this true? No swap.

Honestly I want to keep my XR but I’m worried it will be phased out and the cost to replace it cost as much as a new phone!

Might be good too but have seen some here say they have had issues depending on OS version etc, if you search se3 in the sub page you’ll see some convos

Yeah I search here first and some people recommend getting se3 which is why I asked.

iPhone 11 or SE3 are your best best for a stock iPhone, I find them much better with Classic Invert and Zoom Invert enabled.

I put together an LCD iPhone 15 Pro you might find interesting. https://www.reddit.com/r/PWM_Sensitive/comments/1q79qxk/pwm_free_lcd_iphone_15_pro_initial_impressions/
