What did you want to do with the phone? Surely an iPhone 5 wouldn't be worth anything to sell and I wouldn't want to be using one today.

I was going to give it to my son (5) to use as a camera. He loves taking pictures and uses an ancient Samsung, but it's massive 6" so he struggles with it.

The iPhone 5 is a perfectly small sized wee simple camera device that is also metal so hardy if/when he drops it.

Bit annoying, would have been perfect for that.

iphone 5 is getting quite old now. Some would call it ancient. I feel my iphone 7 is getting close to the ancient category as well, but still worlds well.

Yeah, for a kids camera though doesn't need to be latest and greatest and iPhones are hard to break though fiddling.

I should ask on the WTB/S thread if anyone's got an old iPhone5 floating around they're willing to part with.
