Captain America might have America’s ass, but did you also know that he’s also the proud owner of America’s iPhone 6? Or at least he was. Because despite surviving Thanos’ downfall, it looks like Cap’s iPhone 6s ultimately succumbed to time itself. Captain America needs a new iPhone.
While Marvel’s Chris Evans might not be the first person you think of when you imagine someone carrying a seven-year-old iPhone, apparently he was until very recently. The Apple TV+ actor took to Instagram to share the news that his beloved iPhone 6 had finally died, seemingly paving the way for a shiny new iPhone 13. Don’t tell him the iPhone 14 is just around the corner!
Something tells me he can probably buy a new phone in September, even if it will be another seven years before it’s upgraded!
So why was Evans walking around with such an old iPhone? If a Twitter post is any indication, he likes the Home button. Haven’t we heard of Apple’s iPhone SE?
We had a good race. I will miss your home button.
I won’t miss the night battle trying to get you charged. Or your grainy images. Or your sudden drops from 100% battery to 15%, to completely dead within minutes.
It’s entirely fair to say that his new handset is one of the best photo-taking iPhones ever to come out of Cupertino, so hopefully the upgrade will be worth it!
As well as starring as Captain America for Marvel, Evans is also part of the Apple TV+ universe – having starred in the launch title Defending Jacob a few years ago.
