We will be arriving for our trip to Disneyland/California 2 weeks from today! But with importance of boarding groups and mobile ordering I'm starting to worry my old iPhone 7 may not be up for the job. DH will also have a 6+ year-old Samsung Galaxy along on the trip and we'll have a 5-year-old iPad on WiFi too.
The phone is 5+ year's old, so I was planning to upgrade sometime in the next year anyway. My biggest concern at the moment is the battery seems to go 1-2 hours before needing a charge if I'm using it pretty heavily. The Disneyland app has also started frequently crashing on me.
I'll be sticking with the iPhone, any recommendations on models? Looking at iPhone 12 mini, SE, XR or 11. Does the newness/speed of the phone matter? I believe they will all have better cameras than my current phone.
And what about networks? We both use cheaper companies that piggy back on the sprint network. I've had a lot of coverage problems when travelling in the past. I almost never use data in town because I can be on WiFi at work/home, but when I do have to use cellular it is almost impossible. Do all networks have good coverage around DL?
