I bought a new iPhone the other day, and i have completely moved all the data to the new iPhone from old iPhone , I'm already using my new iPhone,
But for my old iPhone , what should i do with it , i'm not selling it since there are also important data and private photos.

Keep it as a back up just in case you some how break the new one. I kept my IPhone 4S for a few years after I upgraded because I thought I would need it if something happened to my 6+

Good idea , i have back up for the old iPhone , My friend suggested that I should delete them, lest important data be discovered by others.

If you have a little brother or something you could put video games on it for him.
They are not interested.

I highly advise destroying them both and buying an android. Thats the only propper way to handle apple garbage.
You seem to hate the iPhone.

put the photos and other stuff from old phone to your new one by following this post then delete it and sell it

Keep it as a backup phone. Make sure erase all content and settings before selling or giving it away.

P.S how do you managed to transfer all data to new iPhone?

Really easy, there are several ways to do it. Here's a link on all the ways to transfer. You should also note that it is just as easy to transfer from an Android as well. When it comes to transferring data, Apple has it down to a science. But that's one of the only things Apple's good at.

Not just iPhone. Apple products in general. They are typically slow use proprietary garbage and frankly iOS sucks noodles. I mean at the very least Android allows installation of third party apps out of box with a mere settings change. No need to reauthorize your software or any other garbage... you do not need to root to change your home screen up... you can simply install an app... unless apples added some new ttheme tool I'm unaware of.... as for MacOS I mean well it works but if I'm going to use an OS other than windows it will always be a Linux distro. On top of that the open nature of the Android OS makes customizing the actual OS way easier than iOS. Oh did I mention iPhone are insanely overpriced for the hardware they have?

Beside backing up your data, another thing you must do is try to wipe everything and settings on your iphone before selling, this is for making your private data safe! You can try safewiper program, unclear, or factory reset.
It is obvious that the factory reset is not helpful, It is only remove from the iPhone's surface , but no completely delete photos, anyway , i will try using the Safewiper tool , thanks

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
