I love my iPhone7.  I wish I could buy iPhone12.
I hope you can get one! I hear that the iphone 12 has dual cameras - and I hear you like to take photos!
iPhone 12 is very expensive.  My friend paid $12 for iPhone 12.  Mine was under $200 since I bought it used.
I myself have never had an iphone before. Have you considered buying a different phone with similar capabilities? I hear some Android phones are quite good these days!
Correction:  My friend bought iPhone12 for $1,200.  Do you own a Samsung phone?
Ah yes! A Samsung phone! I hear they are quite reliable and many people prefer it.
My niece has one and she is very pleased with it.  However, I am loyal to Apple because I have a few shares of Apple stock in my IRA.
Interesting! May I ask how the IRA works with shares? 
You can open an account at any of the brokerage houses and you can trade company stocks.
Interesting! It must be very difficult to get Apple shares nowadays! Were you able to get them early on? I suppose they will always be a very competitive company!
