At the beginning of this year, Apple discontinued offering the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, two mobiles launched beside the iPhone X back in the year 2017. The launch of the iPhone SE 2, a low-cost iPhone starting at $399, made the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus unnecessary, as it includes a fast chip and better camera than the 3-year-old phones that Apple was selling for $450 up till April 2020.
While Apple has removed some older iPhone offerings, it has resumed selling various more classic devices, which means it now sells a phone at approximately every price position.
