Daughter wants her first phone at 13

She's making a decent case for it since her friends all have them and she's in middle school now. I know I can't hold her back forever but I'm nervous about putting a smartphone in her hands. Thinking about getting her a basic phone first or one of those limited phones but she'll think it's lame. What age did you guys give your kids their first real phone? And did you do any parental controls that actually worked or did they just find ways around it?
