Ending all speculations around the highest iPhone selling models, global technology major Apple has announced to discontinue older iPhones, including iPhone 11, 12 Mini, 13 Pro, and 13 Pro Max.
According to reports, the tech giant has replaced the outgoing Pro models with the launch of new Pro models in Apple’s iPhone lineup, like it does every year. The report mentioned that Apple has officially stopped selling the aforementioned older iPhone models, but they will still be available for purchase from retailers around the world while stocks last.
The iPhone 13 Pro series brought some major upgrades. It introduced features like a 120Hz LTPO display, an improved triple camera system, much better battery life, and more. Further, the firm discontinued the iPhone 11 from 2019. It was the first base iPhone with a dual-camera setup, 4GB RAM, 18W wired charging support, and more.
