Iphone 13 max restore methods

I bought a 13 pro after owning the 11 pro and it was a genuine waste of money. The new device is 100% faulty and doesn't update according to the advertisements of 100% transferability. I bought 3 Iphone 13's and all 3 of the phones did not properly upload relevant information from previously used devised. I honestly would have stuck to my old Iphone or would have traded my phone in for a Samsung device if I knew it wouldn't work. The advertisements online are a lie and do not reflect the current standing of devises by Apple and I would recommend reading the fine print and inquiring from the apple technicians about the issues and defects with the iphone prior to buying. I wish I could refund my purchase and get my phone back but that this point apple has said that there is no use to this process and to stick witch my new purchase.


Terrible service. Terrible product. Terrible system and cloud service. 1000000000% buy Samsun or a competitor before looking into this trash *** product.

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15

Mobile model selection is an individual choice based on many parameters. Such as Money, Feature, Status, Aesthetic, Utility, User-Friendliness, Availability, Warranty Coverage, Service Support, Resale value, Technology and many other factors.
