I thought about this for a long time. It is necessary to consider this issue from all
angles. Is it an affordable old phone or a new  phone? but i think you should buy a new
phone. when you get a new phone its memory will be empty and you can keep the
picture files on the phone more easily. Storage space is important for those who like to
take pictures like me. and storage is important when you want to download an app. 
And of course battery life is very important. battery life should be high. phone may run
out of charge very quickly when it is low. that's a big problem. the phone has become
our everything and we need it, suddenly running out of charge can be bad. older
phones may have low battery life. 
Also, old phones may have expired warranty. if it breaks you pay for it. this is a sad
situation. 
looking at all this you should definitely buy a new phone. it will be comfortable and
long lasting for you. you can save money and get a new phone.
Good luck
