I don’t see that happening as the iPhone 7+ costs $1100. The price had fallen just $330 in more than two years. Not a considerable fall if you ask me.

The iPhone 7 still sells for $500 (release price $700) in my country at least. The XS will be out of production before it drops to a reasonable price.
