The 128GB base storage of the 13 made the iPhone 12 looks like the worst deal ever. 128GB iPhone 13 is only $50 more than 128GB iPhone 12. Great job Apple at nudging everyone to just buy the 13.

basically the only iPhone to buy is either the 11 if you’re on the budget (only $100 more than the SE for much better battery and modern design), or the iPhone 13 (only $50 more than the iPhone 12 of same storage size).

For once, Apple made the buying decision quite easy despite the lineup.
