Were can I get the unlocked US version of this iPhone??? This would a good phone for my mother to use. I was able to buy the Galaxy S25 Ultra unlocked version online straight from Samsung without a cellular plan so why can't I buy an unlocked IP...

You are right but i know some people who sold their android (with 120hz) to buy this phone (with 60hz) why didn't they care about loosing the 120hz and like i said you should test it and find out for yourself, don't jump into conclusions

Not the first time gsmarena gets a battery test wrong. I am grateful for this website as it's very convenient to look up specs but they could put more effort in their reviews.
