Long story short, my dad has been an android user the last 10 years or so and I’m sick of him having the green texts.

I want to buy him an iPhone 13 pro max unlocked for his birthday coming up.

Where the best place to buy one? Through apples website? Amazon? I want to buy it new

Green texts... now that's a perfect reason to get an iPhone.
I keep hearing that this is some sort of thing and that people are being shunned for it. SMH.

But, I asked my son about this back when he was in high school (2019 I think) and with his group then, phones were split evenly between Android and iPhone. No one was shunning the Android users in their group messaging.

So, who knows? I suppose it's true somewhere, but maybe there's less to it than the media makes out.
