Cristiano Ronaldo draws attention for using older technology
Cristiano Ronaldo has sparked interest among fans for his habit of using older electronic devices despite his immense wealth. In a recent Facebook post, the Al Nassr striker was seen using a smartphone that appears to be an iPhone 15 Pro.
This follows a pattern of the athlete utilizing older technology. Previously, he was noted for using a Huawei Mate from 2017 during his return to Manchester United, an iPhone 13 Pro Max in 2022, and even a fourth-generation iPod Shuffle released in 2010.
With an estimated net worth of approximately $1.2 billion and a projected annual income of $300 million for 2026, Ronaldo’s preference for older hardware stands in contrast to his status as one of the world’s wealthiest athletes.
