Apple hikes price of older iPhones, now more expensive than at launch

Comments

1. Nova: yeah because the new ones were going to be cheaper somehow? now they just want our money for everything
2. Elinranaxo: who's paying the margin for people just upgrading phone cases now?
3. Bruno: they're trying to make that 5-year-old iPhone I have look like a steal instead
4. Fathom Echo: price increases don't surprise me but making the 17e more expensive than the new pro is just wild
5. Islag: told ya this was comin', can't say I'm surprised prices go up on the older models too
6. Shadow Moth: used to be you could actually tell the difference between the Pro and non-Pro models by the price tag now it just feels like they're nickel and diming their loyal customers
7. Irisv: who needs newer models when you can still get used to loving your old phone
8. Kai: prices always go up, but that new duo sounds kinda wild
9. Cleodiazxo: what's next, they're gonna make their watch collector edition rare?
10. Lunafalk: what a weird time to raise prices when new phones are coming out isn't great for anyone who wants an upgrade, but not everyone can suddenly spend more
11. Noralund: Surprised they're not just killing off the lower end models already
12. Lucass: apparently being last year's model isn't cheap anymore 😐
13. Arlo: looks like substance finally gives way to sticker shock
14. Marek: finally some honesty about the real inflation rate in tech. still have my iPhone 12 for now though
