Introduced in 2007 by Steve Jobs, iPhone is Apple’s flagship iOS device and easily its most popular product around the world. Software wise, it runs iOS and includes a large collection of mobile apps through the App Store.

Since its introduction, Apple has released at least one new phone every single year. In recent years, that has typically been in the fall. iPhones are sold through multiple retail channels including Apple Stores, cellular stores, Best Buy, and other major electronic retailers. iPhones can be bought with a single up front payment, financed through the iPhone Upgrade Program, or financed through a cellular carrier.

In principle, this will allow for slightly shallower depth of field, enabling greater separation between your subject and the background – although it’s a relatively small difference. But there are four ways to achieve shallow depth of field (DOF) with much older iPhones …

Here’s why I left T-Mobile for an MVNO

T-Mobile app icon in Trash

I had been a loyal T-Mobile customer since 2016, when the company introduced its T-Mobile ONE plan. I had a military discount the entire time I was with them, but even with that discount my bill eventually ballooned to $113 a month thanks to T-Mobile’s price hikes. I decided enough was enough, so I started looking for a cheaper alternative. Plus, with Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro costing at least $100 more this year, I thought cutting my cell phone bill might help soften the blow if I upgraded to a new device. And so, I sought out an MVNO.
