**Cupertino, CA** – Apple has expanded its iPhone lineup, offering customers nine different models to choose from. The move comes as the company phases out older models, including the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, which are no longer available directly from Apple.
The addition of the iPhone 13 to the lineup, alongside the existing iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus, increases the available options. Notably, the iPhone 13 mini has been discontinued, likely due to its lower-than-expected sales.
The expanded lineup now includes the iPhone 16 series, iPhone 15, 15 Plus, 14, 14 Plus, 13, and the perennial iPhone SE. Apple has also adjusted pricing on older models, with the iPhone 15 and 15 Plus now starting at $699 and $799, respectively. The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus have also seen price reductions, now available for $599 and $699.
The move by Apple reflects the company’s strategy to provide a diverse range of options while maintaining a clear and manageable selection for consumers. With a wider price range and a broader selection of features, Apple aims to cater to a wider audience and maximize its reach in the smartphone market.
