Apple discontinues shipments of iPhone SE, 6, 6 Plus, 6s Plus in India: Report

Firstpost  

Buying an entry-level iPhone will become more expensive in India, in fact by almost Rs 8,000. Following the launch of the iPhone XR, XS, and the XS Max in 2018, Apple stopped selling the iPhone SE, the 6s series, and the iPhone X in the US. As per the report, the decision was taken after Apple improved its revenue and profit in India in 2018-19, even though iPhone sales volumes took a hit. The move does come across as a little strange though as it was only in May 2019 that Apple began marketed the iPhone 6s as “now made in India,” with a price tag of Rs 26,910. “These models which are being phased out will increase the average selling price of iPhones in India and boost both profit and revenue.” Apple will continue to offer its newer iPhone in India however, including other models produced in the country, such as the iPhone 7 assembled by Wistron and starting to be exported to the European market.
