Support runway
Support endingThe iPhone 11 Pro Max is late in its support life, so buy it for clean daily use at the right price, not as a long-term hold.
Repair reality

Resale confidence
Resale weakThe iPhone 11 Pro Max is not the kind of phone buyers usually chase for strong resale later, so long-term value relies more on what you pay now.
