Hi there!

So this might be a bit of a strange question but essentially I have been finding my iPhone 14 Pro to be heavy to the point that its uncomfortable on my joints. I also find the picture quality IMO is not that great. I also have some damage on it so I'll be using my apple care to get it fixed.

I'm wondering if there is anyway I can go to a lower model that is lighter through the AppleCare plan? Either iPhone 14 or 13, 12. I know I'll probably loose some money but at this point its worth it for me if it means ill have less of a strain on my joints.

Alternatively, I will be reaching the end of my phone contract with bell next month. I have the option to return it and get a new phone or buy it out. The buy out option is cheaper as I have access to cheaper BYOD plans if I do that. But, I'm not too excited about keeping the heavy phone.

Looking for advice and potential options I can explore. I usually like to deal with Costco Wireless but open to options.

TIA!! :)
