Tips for buying jailbreakable iPhones in today’s market
- Finding a jailbreakable iPhone or iPad might be difficult since the jailbreak community usually lags behind Apple firmware.
- New devices will not work for jailbreaks since they usually have newer firmware pre-installed from higher inventory turnaround rates.
- To find jailbreakable devices, used markets might be better since the likelihood of finding an old sale (NOS) device is also possible.
- You need to figure out which device and firmware combination you are aiming for since knowing what you want will help you narrow your search.
- People can look in places like eBay, Swappa or Facebook Marketplace.
- Sellers can lie on the firmware of their device when they sell it online so be cautious and try to avoid this scenario.
- The battery may have already been used for about a year before it starts dying.
- Be aware that the market can be competitive when it comes to these devices.
- When a new jailbreak comes out, markets dry up as a lot of people anticipate jailbreaking so it's best to be prepared and buy ahead of time.
- It is advisable to have a separate secondary device for jailbreaking and at the same time keep your current one for updates and new features.
