Which iphone to buy for app testing?
Good day to all.
I want to try my hand at writing simple applications for the iPhone.
Do I need to have an iPhone 4, 5, 6 on hand? Purely financially it will be difficult to acquire everything. Who's getting out?

If you also take into account the retina, even supported all together will cost a lot.

And what is the old ipad? If, apart from the retina, all other iPhones had no problems (4,5,6), can you buy an old ipad plus a retina second-hand iPhone?

For testing, you can also buy used ones, there are a few with scratches, with a shabby screen. And it will come out cheap.
Launched an app with only an old iPad. Without a single device, Apple will not publish anyway.
However, when I received feedback about problems on Retina, I had to look for a newer device in order to borrow it for testing and fixing bugs. No emulators help here.
to start, you can take an iPod touch 5.
Then buy an iPad 4 / Air / Air 2
and, to complete the iPhone 6+ zoo,
well, to cover it completely, you can take an iPod touch 4.
Занимаюсь разработкой коммерческих кроссплатформенных игр. Разработка идёт под виндой, но делаю так, чтобы можно было программно задавать любой размер экрана - так можно симулировать экран любого устройства (для отображения HD/Retina под виндой, окно уменьшается в два раза). При этом тестирование iOS версии провожу на iPad 4 (Retina), пробуя оба режима - и как ретина, и как не ретина (программно задаю размер экрана как не ретина). В абсолютном большинстве случаев этого достаточно, чтобы игра работала на любом iOS устройстве (не сильно старом, конечно же) - iPad, iPod, iPhone. В некоторых случаях возникали проблемы с нехваткой памяти на некоторых старых устройствах (в играх с большим объёмом графики) - это вычислялось при бета-тестировании.
В случае системных приложений, думаю, всё будет гораздо проще.
