With the launch of the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro, Apple has discontinued some older iPhones that were available as low-cost options. Apple is no longer selling the iPhone 11, and the iPhone 12 mini has also been discontinued. The iPhone 13 mini remains in the lineup for those who want a smaller iPhone.
Apple's new iPhone lineup is as follows, with starting storage capacities:
iPhone SE - $429 (64GB) iPhone 12 - $599 (64GB) iPhone 13 mini - $599 (128GB) iPhone 13 - $699 (128GB) iPhone 14 - $799 (128GB) iPhone 14 Plus - $899 (128GB) iPhone 14 Pro - $999 iPhone 14 Pro Max - $1099
The iPhone SE continues to be the cheapest iPhone that's available at $429, and the iPhone 12 is now $100 cheaper at $599. The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini have also dropped in price by $100.
Apple has discontinued the iPhone 12 mini, but it is available from Apple's refurbished store for just $439 for the time being. Refurbished stock is gone right now, but the discounted 12 minis should come back in stock in the future.
Apple may have canceled the super scratch resistant anti-reflective display coating that it planned to use for the iPhone 17 Pro models, according to a source with reliable information that spoke to MacRumors.
Last spring, Weibo leaker Instant Digital suggested Apple was working on a new anti-reflective display layer that was more scratch resistant than the Ceramic Shield. We haven't heard...

Apple will likely manufacture its 20th anniversary iPhone models in China, despite broader efforts to shift production to India, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.
In 2027, Apple is planning a "major shake-up" for the iPhone lineup to mark two decades since the original model launched. Gurman's previous reporting indicates the company will introduce a foldable iPhone alongside a "bold"...
This week marks the 10th anniversary of the Apple Watch, which launched on April 24, 2015. Yesterday, we recapped features rumored for the Apple Watch Series 11, but since 2015, the Apple Watch has also branched out into the Apple Watch Ultra and the Apple Watch SE, so we thought we'd take a look at what's next for those product lines, too.

Apple is preparing to launch a dramatically thinner iPhone this September, and if recent leaks are anything to go by, the so-called iPhone 17 Air could boast one of the most radical design shifts in recent years.

All upcoming iPhone 17 models will come equipped with 12GB of RAM to support Apple Intelligence, according to the Weibo-based leaker Digital Chat Station.
The claim from the Chinese leaker, who has sources within Apple's supply chain, comes a few days after industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that the iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max will all be equipped with 12GB of RAM.

Despite being more than two years old, Apple's AirPods Pro 2 still dominate the premium wireless‑earbud space, thanks to a potent mix of top‑tier audio, class‑leading noise cancellation, and Apple's habit of delivering major new features through software updates. With AirPods Pro 3 widely expected to arrive in 2025, prospective buyers now face a familiar dilemma: snap up the proven...
I’m sorry but IMO they are now overpriced in the U.K. no excuse for it either. They could easily swallow any inflation costs, I think they’ll lose sales now especially cost of living crisis. The US is also suffering from high inflation, it’s a bit of an insult that product prices are going up everywhere expect the US.
£949 for the base iPhone 14 Plus, £849 for the base iPhone 14! That’s just too much. and that’s not mentioning the Pro iPhones.
In Europe the prices are ridiculous. I don’t know what they expect from the next months, but with winter and enormous problems with energy and inflation (we don’t have gas, americans, our factories and industries will stop), I seriously doubt they’ll set a sales record. With 500€/month electricity bill, people won’t rush buying an iPhone at 1339€
And now add the European prices where our worthless currency literally caused last year's iPhone 13 to be more expensive today than yesterday. Instead of a $100 price decrease, we got an increase. Could literally buy an iPhone 13 cheaper yesterday than today. Don't even get me started on the 14's prices ?
1449€ here in Germany/Austria for the BASE 128gb pro max!! Absolutely unbeliveable, and if you know the German market, everyone likes their Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis (Price-performance ratio). I think Apple will fail miserably this year in the European market, as even wealthier people will start looking elsewhere. And people that buy on a 24 months contract basis will also asks themselves whether this is really justified, especially as other manufacturers actually have viable, yet much cheaper alternatives.
Europeans usually don't take out debt as much as Americans, and are more price-conscious. To ask for THIS MUCH for a small upgrade is starting to feel ludicrous, and I personally don't know many people who will look at a price of 1449€ for a base phone and say "ok, great, I'll buy it".
I predict a big win for Android and Google in Europe in the upcoming year/years.
