Instead of buying your next expensive iPhone, why not just never own it at all?

      After you return it, they shred it. It’s too hard to sanitise (both physically and in terms of configuration, not to mention indelible per-device flags apps can set to block scammers using the same device to make multiple accounts), and destroying it helps to maintain scarcity and keep prices up.

        I hope you’re being sarcastic.

        It wasn’t about that, but more about physical cleansing after every use. 🤭

          Physical cleaning also helps prevent the spread of viruses!
