Finally found an newer release iPhone at a good price

So I’ve struggled with buying phones for awhile. I like iPhones generally for access to their App Library, integration and user friendliness. However I hate how quickly they stop supporting devices if you’re someone who likes to buy older models refurbished like me (I miss my 8 plus). SEs have been nice in the last but still expensive. I have an Se3 which normally I wouldn’t be keen to replace so fast but my toddler completely destroyed the screen. A cracked screen, whatever, but it stopped sensing my finger on half the screen which was my breaking point to start looking for a new option. I just found the boost mobile deal for $199 + 3 months (they also have a $99 deal for 128 gig) of their $60 plan for a 250 gig iPhone 16e. It’s a new release so it will be supported for a long time and I’m already used to the carrier using their 25$ unlimited plan for cell service (highly recommend, been using them for two years as although they’re not the fastest on this budget program, it serves my needs well). I just haven’t found a good deal like this in awhile for a very expensive item so I thought I’d share. The total cost of the phone ends up being around $300 for me which was awesome and I know will serve me well for quite awhile.
