    I've been happy with my S3, S7, and now S20. The first two lasted about 4 years each before I decided I wanted to upgrade. Some folks can't stand android, I can't stand iPhones, so pick whichever tickles your fancy. They're all consumer grade junk that is outdated as soon as you buy it.

      My guess that is an iphone message not coming thru. There is a setting to correct that, but it is actually caused in the way an ios sends messages doen't work well outside of IOS operating systems. Also there are a few settings in SMS on how to handle different messages. Either way by bet it is a setting. She has A LOT of control over her phone and how it operates, but it is a learning curve

      In settings:general management:date and time-

      Make sure "Automatic date and time" and "Automatic time zone" are both on

        What updates and changes are you speaking of? Have been with Iphone since 2006.

          Yup. I've had a galaxy for the past 6 years and actually went back to an iphone last week.

            Thought about switching from apple last week. But then I look at my iwatch, and the 20 chargers around my house and our cars and went with the iPhone 14.

              That is more the software on your phone(Facebook, Google, TikTok, news, etc) than the phone itself.

                I'm sticking with iPhones. It's unfortunate but that have us. We simply have to budget for replacements every few years (or use the interest-free payment plans). Fun for a family of 4.

                iPads and Mac books seem to last a little longer

                  I have had Samsung forever, s22 ultra now. Use whatever phone you know the best, but Samsung is by far the best camera in any smart phone.

                    Google Pixel is the absolute best phone I've ever had. Much preferred over the Samsung Galaxy.

                          You may want to look at the Samsung Galaxy series

                          I didn't care for the curved glass models after I broke one, but the Galazy A53 5G has been stellar, battery life is fantastic. >$300

                            iPhone 11 here and I haven’t had any updates since I purchased it over 2 yrs ago. Aren’t androids more prone to getting viruses? Remember when the Russians hacked TBH earlier this year and people with androids had heck but us with iPhones had very limited issues? I will say that my son’s Samsung has an awesome camera and the zoom power aspect blows the iPhone away.

                              I have a galaxy and had no issues when the hack occurred

                                We have S10 Galaxies and they take much better and clearer pics than i-phones. Color is much better. All the other stuff works just as well and if you get one be sure it is an unlocked version. That way you can switch carriers if you need to. My next one will be the S22 ultra.
