I would say so, Apple will start to drain the batteries on the older phones. So, getting a newer one it better. Although, the screen does scratch A LOT! If you want to get it, make you you buy a case and screen protector beforehand because I had it without that for 2 weeks and the screen cracked! It scratched so much from I don’t even know what and ruined my phone. So I’d advise you to buy that before you buy a new phone.
