How to ask my dad for a proper phone when he has money?

Okay so my dad and mom are separated and my mom provides for housing and food everything else. My dad provides for phones and electronics. Now I'm 15 and responsible I never broken a phone and take care of my stuff. I was looking for a iphone. And wish the app showed me some cheap iphones I did my research and told my mom about it but she doesn't believe in apps like that. My dad has a iphone and the women he is with and her daughter all have one. He went to buy me one and I asked for a iphone but he said no and was looking for a cheap phone. I had a phone before never broke it just was a bad phone and started acting weird and the camera was terrible and I want to start a youtube channel but the quality is bad. So I need a good phone so how should I ask my dad for a iphone or maybe a samsung. I do well in school and help my family with a lot of things. I have a phone now but its even worse cause I can't make calls and I have trouble sending messages when I really need to send them. I have a long distance relationship and I need to stay connected. So how can I ask my dad for a proper phone when he has money?

So get a baby sitting job and buy one of your own. It doesn't HAVE to be the latest Iphone or what ever. Cheap ones keep you connected just as well and imagine the pride you will have when your friends found out you bought it yourself, no help from parents.

Don't believe in apps like WISH.wish is a scam… Your mom knows what she is talking about… Trust us. Try to buy something like $20 first… And see how that turns out befroe you buy something pricy… Also an iphone 5 is only $200 new… And it works almost just as good as the iphone 10… Also

if you had a phone and never broke it… Where is it?

  • Where do I find a proper Rectangular case for my Iphone 5? I have an iphone 5, and i really like rectangular phones(like the nokia lumia 1020) and i really hate the curvy touches of a phone (perhaps a galaxy s3… Not too curvy but i still don't like it). Where can i find a proper bumper rectangular case ( i guess thats what you call it) for my iphone for less than 40$… Please help. And thanks in advance…
  • What is the proper way to charge your iPhone? What is the proper way to charge your phone? Should it be done over night? Do I have to wait for the phone to die before I plug it in? Do I have to unplug it a few minutes after it hits 100% or it could stay for longer? Obviously I want it to last at least a whole day(daytime) so about 15 hours maybe? Also my phone is new it has only been charged once since I bought it from the store.
  • Trying to unlock iPhone but can't find proper non-scam site? I'm trying to unlock my iPhone 4 locked to Telstra. I bought it on ebay so I don't have contact with the seller. I Can't find a cheaper way to unlock it than the $60 apple solution, I've seen a few sites that have lower prices but I can't be sure of the legitimacy of it. Anyone know a good site with some good rep that can unlock it for cheap? Please!
  • Today my dad upgraded to an iphone 10, and because he has the forever iphone plan he was able to keep his old phone and he gave it to me? I synced all of my apps and contacts from my old phone, a samsung, to the new one, when I texted one of my friends, I found out I was sending messages through my icloud address and I had no service. Is this something I'll have to call my carrier about to switch my number, or can it be done manually and from the phone's settings. If the it's the latter, what steps would I have to take?
