Is 13 too young for an iPhone?

My step mom thinks i'm too young for a smart phone but I don't have any social media so i don't know why she thinks that so what do you think? Am I too young? Everyone tells me I'm very mature and responsible for 13.

Yes its too young, youre a kid you should be playing outside not complaining about wanting an iphone:/

For an expensive phone like that? Yes. I mean I don't even have an Iphone and I'm 17. Why can you get another smartphone? There are lots of options and they are easier to take care of and a lot cheaper.

No, my cousin who is 10 has a iPhone 5

YES no teenager should have a iphone at all.

I think it's bratty if you're insisting on a smart phone but I think you're old enough and that it's good for you to have a phone of some kind.

I think that 13 year olds should have phones for safety, yes I know, people used to get through their whole lives without phones but now that they do exist I think they are a good and useful thing.

Also how many people played outside at 13? If by playing outside you mean playing hide and seek or on swings or playing out with your dolls then me and my friends had stopped doing that by 13 simply out of not wanting to do it anymore because it was boring, 13 year olds aren't little kids, they're young teenagers, I wanted to go to the beach and shopping with my friends when I was 13 and without a phone it would not have been as safe for me to do this because my parents wouldn't have been able to contact me so they wouldn't know where I was and if anything bad happened they wouldn't know about it.

Yes. You don't need one. Kids shouldn't even get iPhones. Now go outside and play like a good kid.

You might be mature for 13, but not beyond that. You don't need a fancy phone at your age and parents that spend that kind of money for smart phones for kids are fools and their kids will expect everything from then on.

There's not much point for a smartphone at that age, especially when you don't have social networks. If you really want a phone, decide on getting maybe a cheaper phone and convince your parents that you'll use it for "emergencies".

I would be fine with my 13 year old having an iPhone. But I would not be paying for it.

If you're mature and responsible enough to have an iPhone, you're mature and responsible enough to save up your own money to get one.

I think it's fine and a good age for a cellphone. Doesn't matter that it's an iPhone. People automatically assume if you have one you're spoiled. That's not true. It's a cellphone, happens to be an iPhone. I say you should have one.

Are you able to pay for the phone your self? How about the bills? If you can't do that, then no, you are too young. An iPhone is really expensive.

No I don't think you are I'm 14 and I have the moto x and my little brother is 11 and he has the s4 lots of people in middle school have smartphones I've had a cople smartphones

Yes

You don't need it and only want it becouse every one else has one and so you can sit around and text and waste time on social media sites

I got one for my 13 birthday now 14 my bro who is now 12 is getting an iphone5s for christmas

My sister got an ipad for her 10th birthday
My younger younger bro got an ipod for his 8th birthday

So no you are not to young at all

  • Young rapper looking for a free app on iPhone to make beats on? I don't have my stuff that I would use to record music. So I'm looking for a free app to make beats on. It doesn't need to be anything complex. It could just be a drum machine or something. I'm just looking for something to rap over. I just don't like rapping over silence and other musicians instrumentals. It HAS to be free too.

  • How young is too young for an iPhone, iPad, or iPod for kids to own? I heard Apple was considering making a child friendly iPod, but apparently "iTouch Kids" didn't go over very well. *shrug*
