Apple launched three new iPhone models on 10 September: the iPhone 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max ( watch the recording of the live stream). Pre-orders begin 13 September at 1pm BST and devices start shipping on 20 September.
While that’s exciting enough for most Apple fans, what’s even more exciting are the subsequent discounts Apple slapped on its iPhone XR and iPhone 8 models.
