Apple unveiled the iPhone 17 series on Tuesday, confirming almost every iPhone 17 rumor and leak that preceded the launch event. Apple introduced the ultra-thin iPhone Air and gave the iPhone 17 Pro models a few important design changes, like the new camera module on the back. All four iPhone 17 models will be available for preorder on Friday (September 12), shipping to buyers a week later (September 19) when in-store sales start.

But like every year, Apple won’t just sell the newest iPhone generation online and in stores. Buyers looking for cheaper iPhone models will be able to choose select iPhone models from previous generations, priced at least $100 lower than the new iPhone 17 models. As you’re about to see, these are still relatively new iPhones, ready to support everything iOS 26 has to offer, including current and future Apple Intelligence features.

Prices start as low as $599 for a 128GB iPhone 16e and go up to $1,999 for a 2TB iPhone 17 Pro Max. The best part about this year’s iPhone series is that Apple upgraded the base storage to 256GB on all models, without increasing prices. The $799 256GB iPhone 17 is actually a much better offer than its predecessor.

Also, buyers should remember that Apple offers a carrier discount for all iPhone models it sells that don’t have “Pro,” “Air,” or “e” in the name. For example, the iPhone 17 Pro starts at $799 only if you sign up for a carrier during the preorder process. Otherwise, the starting price is $829. The prices below will include the full price you’d pay for each iPhone model, disregarding any deals.

The arrival of the iPhone 17, iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max will force Apple to retire older iPhone models. It’s what Apple does with each new iPhone launch.
