Apple to discontinue iPhone 12, iPhone 13 Mini, and more after iPhone 15 launch
From iPhone 14 Pro Max to iPhone 12, check out all the iPhones that Apple discontinued following the iPhone 15 launch at the Wonderlust event.
After months of anticipation, Apple finally unveiled its iPhone 15 series at the Wonderlust event on September 12. Most of the leaks and rumours about specs and features turned out to be accurate, and we saw four models launched - iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. The standard models got significant upgrades with Dynamic Island, a 48MP camera, and A17 Bionic coming to the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus. On the other hand, the iPhone 15 Pro models got the new A17 Pro chip, a titanium frame, an action button, and a telephoto lens. Soon after the launch, Apple also discontinued some of its previous models, while prices of other older models were slashed.
Apple event 2023: Apple to discontinue these iPhones
1. iPhone 12 - Apple has also discontinued the iPhone 12, which was the cheapest standard iPhone you could buy that wasn't an iPhone SE or a Mini, at $649. The iPhone 12 was one of the most notable devices in iPhone's history as it went through a significant design change, got OLED displays, and became the first iPhone to get 5G. The A14 Bionic SoC powered it, and although it was a capable chipset, it had average battery life.
2. iPhone 13 Mini - The last of Apple's 'Mini' iPhones has also been discontinued. The iPhone 14 Plus replaced the iPhone 13 Mini in the previous year's iPhone lineup, although Apple kept selling the device due to its relatively low price. It features all the bells and whistles of the standard iPhone 13 but in a smaller and more compact 5.4-inch form factor. It cost $599 in the US until it was discontinued.
3. iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14 Pro - Apple has discontinued its flagship devices from last year, which debut its Dynamic Island technology. The iPhone 14 Pro Max and iPhone 14 Pro feature a 48MP camera and the A16 Bionic SoC, which now powers the two standard iPhone 15 models. These devices were priced at a premium, with iPhone 14 Pro starting at $999 and iPhone 14 Pro Max at $1099 for the base 128GB storage variant.
