Deputy Milonov’s old Nokia Lumia broke down, and he bought an iPhone 17 “cheaply” from a poor American so that he could go to Kadysheva’s concert

😢

Deputy Vitaly Milonov told a heartbreaking story about how he got his iPhone 17 Pro jacket.

A week ago, a deputy was spotted with a smartphone in his hands. Now he confirmed to Rotunda that the device was purchased at a second-hand store. This has an amazing story, worthy of a film adaptation.

The iPhone was sold by an American who urgently needed rubles to get to Nadezhda Kadysheva’s concert.

Shawarma, Lumiya and a random deal

As Milonov said, everything happened with tragedy. His trusty Nokia Lumia 625 (a monument from the 2013 era) suddenly died. The politician, shawarma in hand, ran to a friend’s thrift store, and a fateful upgrade happened there.

They said an American came to see them, who found himself in Russia without a MIR card, and his VISA card was not accepted anywhere. I wanted to buy a ticket to Nadezhda Kadysheva’s concert for rubles, so I handed over my iPhone. They helped the poor guy out.

Cheap because the color is weird

The iPhone 17 Pro, according to Milonov, got him cheap, because “due to its strange color, no one would have bought it anyway.” The color matched his hair, so the coincidence was decided by “familiar fate.” However, he hasn’t paid for the iPhone yet.

Milonov that he has been buying an iPhone for a long time as a second smartphone, exclusively for business: the motorcycle headset only works with Apple devices.

Now the politician is going to test the gadget for vulnerabilities together with scientists from the Council of Veterans of the Northern Military District. He wants criminals to install RuStore on their iPhone.

What if a new version of MAX comes out that won’t be in the App Store?

As a result, the American had a ticket for Kadysheva in his hands, Milonov had an orange iPhone, and everyone else had only one question left: which of them made the strangest purchase. [Ротонда]
