With the announcement of the new iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, Apple ‘reduced’ the price of its existing iPhone line up and got rid of the iPhone 5c.
Here are the revised Canadian prices on Apple’s website and their changes in parentheses:
iPhone 5s
- 16GB – $599 (-$40 vs Sept. 2014)
- 32GB – $679 (-$20 vs Sept. 2014)
Given today’s exchange rate, $450 USD for the iPhone 5s (in the USA) equates to $598.50 CAD, so there isn’t that much of a difference once taken into consideration.
iPhone 6
- 16GB – $769 (-$70 vs March 2015)
- 64GB – $899 (-$70 vs March 2015)
iPhone 6 Plus
- 16GB – $899 (-$70 vs March 2015)
- 64GB – $1029 (-$70 vs March 2015)
Also interesting to note is gold is no longer available for iPhone 6/6 Plus, nor is the 128GB storage option. For either of those, you’ll need to jump up to an iPhone 6s or iPhone 6s Plus.
For the price of $899 CAD today, you can either get a 64GB iPhone 6, 16GB iPhone 6 Plus, or 16GB iPhone 6s. Apple definitely has you making some decisions.
I don’t believe in buying old technology unless it’s more than half the cost of the current version.
I think you mean “less than half of”, unless that was meant to be some form of sarcasm. =S
Man, the Canadian dollar is killing us. I wonder how much I paid for my 64gb iPhone 6 on launch day. I have a feeling it was less than $899 that it costs right now.
Stupid question. are these prices the final prices? (till next year) or is there going to be another price drop when the iphones (6s and 6s+) are officially released on sept 25th ?

Any idea when these price drops will reach the carriers?
