Apple unveiled its new generation iPhone yesterday. The new models, iPhone 12 and 12 Pro will be available on October 23 and pre-orders can be placed starting Friday. Notable new features include the integration of 5G technology, a faster chip and improvements to the camera’s night mode, according to the manufacturer. The iPhone 12 is also available in a new mini format, while the Pro can be ordered in the tested Max screen size as well. Both special sizes will ship November 13 and can be pre-ordered from November 6.

In the U.S, the iPhone 12 will be available starting at US$33/month for a two-year contract. For ease of comparison, the price of the standard model is displayed at US$943 without contract, trade-in or sim-lock and including California state sales tax in our chart. Still, the iPhone price in the U.S. is quite low compared to other countries. The Japanese are also among the luckiest Apple customers. Here, the new iPhone model is available for under US$950 (including tax) for the 128 GB iPhone 12 and just over US$1100 for the 64 GB iPhone 12 Pro.

Indians customers, however, are paying a much higher price for the same phone. It will cost them upwards of US$1100 for the starter model and a whopping $1,636 for the Pro model. While the price of the iPhone 11 was one of the highest in the world in the UK and Russia, the price of the 12 model turned out lower – at least in comparison. Continental Europeans – for example in Germany and France – are paying more of a premium this time around.

Apple officially unveiled the new iPhone SE on Wednesday, adding a new low-cost option to its smartphone line-up. The official successor to the original iPhone SE released in 2016 takes design cues from the 2017 iPhone 8 but comes with the same A13 chip that powers Apple’s flagship smartphones. The new iPhone SE features a single-lens camera system, a Touch ID fingerprint scanner and 4.7-inch LCD screen.

Like the 2016 iPhone SE, the new model is the smallest one in Apple’s smartphone line-up, although people hoping for an even handier model will be disappointed. Coming in three colors (black, white and red) and three storage options (64GB, 128GB and 256GB), the SE is officially replacing the iPhone 8, which had still been available on the Apple Store until Wednesday’s announcement.

Starting at $399, the iPhone SE is a much better deal for entry-level buyers than the iPhone 8 was, because it offers the same design with better specs at a lower price. As the following chart shows, Apple now has an iPhone for (almost) every wallet with prices ranging from $399 to $1,449. It remains to be seen whether the new iPhone SE can mimic the success of its 2016 predecessor, but considering its price and the fact that it features the same chip as the most expensive iPhone you can buy, it looks like a great offer for budget-conscious Apple fans.
