Buy a new mobile phone for my parents. Which one is better, iPhone or domestic Android? Does anyone who has studied it recommend it?

Let's talk about the needs. My parents are almost 60 years old, and they have some problems with their eyesight and hearing. I occasionally saw some posts and videos before saying that the Apple system and ios are doing a good job in adapting to aging, and AirPods can also be used as hearing aids, which is a bit excited.
The price is actually not bad. One person can accept it for less than 5,000 for mobile phones and headphones, mainly because they are worry-free to use.

Anonymous2698 Feb 11, 2025It's better to buy an Android phone. Apple estimates that the older generation is 60 years old, so it's hard to learn

Anonymous8432 Feb 11, 2025I recommend Android. In your budget country, you can buy an IPhone16 standard version 128g after replenishing it, but I feel that 128g is really not enough these days. I will chat more on WeChat later and the storage will get stuck when it is full, and I may not clean it up. Or just add some money for 256g.

Anonymous2700 Feb 11, 2025My parents are similar in age. They used to be trapped by national conditions and complaints and changed their phones almost every one or two years. Later, they both switched to iPhone XR one after another (lcd is said to be more eye-friendly). Over the past few years, in addition to the initial settings and some function usage instructions, as well as the midway battery is not durable, the protective film cover is old, etc., but it has been used almost stably and reliably, and reminders are used to remind them of some things, which is really worry-free

Anonymous676 Feb 11, 2025iPhone characters can be very large, but it's best to buy ProMax 😂 or Plus AirPods are really unnecessary … (They don't have many scenes with headphones at home either My parents always had an iPhone, and then I turned on iCloud Family Sharing, and now my mom can look through photos from ten years ago when she has nothing to do. 😂 Don't worry about their mobile phone suddenly breaking down or anything, they all have backups

Anonymous825 Feb 11, 2025The previous iPhone with the Home button is the most suitable phone for the elderly. Anyway, if you have something to do, press the Home button to go back to the homepage. The current full-screen gesture for the elderly in my family does not understand 😂.

Anonymous2704 Feb 12, 20251. 5,000 yuan can buy a good Android, with decent performance, large battery life, fast charging speed, good signal, cheap maintenance and many after-sales outlets 2. As for the fraud and installation jump that many people say, it is much better. This should be secondary to the demand 3. In fact, there is another aspect that needs to be considered, which is the community attribute and the emotional value of the mobile phone brand. If your parents value this, it is also possible to buy an iPhone decisively

Anonymous2706 Feb 13, 2025These hearing aid functions, hearing protection functions, etc. depend only on the version of headphones or also on the version of mobile phones. Can the US version of headphones + the China Bank's iphone turn on the hearing protection function?
