Oct 17, 2022| The standard iPhone 14 doesn't have much of a compelling incentive to switch from its predecessor, the iPhone 13
Given the information available so far, the standard iPhone 14 doesn't have much of a compelling incentive to switch from its predecessor, the iPhone 13. The new Plus version has some advantages, such as a larger screen, but it doesn't seem to be selling well.
As a result, the price of the iPhone model varies according to the sales of the product, which is why the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus depreciated twice as fast as the iPhone 13 mini and iPhone 13 in the second-hand market last year.
However, iphones have long been said to hold their value, and in the past we've done data comparisons to see how the price of iPhone models has fluctuated.
So let's do a quick comparison of the iPhone 13's launch price, the current price of a new iPhone, and the current price of a used device.
It is reported that the price of the 128GB version of the iPhone 13 is 5,999 yuan. The current price of the new iPhone on the e-commerce platform is 4,999 yuan, and the second-hand price on the same platform is 4,649 yuan.
In comparison, compared with the initial price, the price of the current iPhone 13 is reduced by 1000 yuan, a reduction of 16.7%; The current iPhone 13 is 350 yuan more expensive than the used model.
Compared with the past, the initial price of iPhone 11 Pro Max released by Apple in 2019 was 9,599 yuan. From June to December 2020, the price dropped to 7,999 yuan, the overall decline was also around 16.7%.
In other words, the overall decline of iPhone 13 has remained roughly close to the horizontal line. But given the information available, it's unclear how much of a decline this year's iPhone 14 will overall be over the next year.
