The move is apparently being given serious consideration, and would be made in response to underwhelming sales of the current Plus model.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/iphone-14-plus-review\">iPhone 14 Plus<\/a> that was unveiled with the rest of the family earlier this year has a starting price of $899 \/ \u00a3949 \/ AU$1,579 for the 128GB version, but it doesn&#8217;t appear to be attracting buyers in the numbers that Apple would like.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"a-tale-of-four-phones\">A tale of four phones<\/h2>\n<p>While canceling the Plus model would be an option for Apple, it&#8217;s likely that development on the iPhone 15 is too far down the line for that to happen. A price cut on the handset that replaced the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/iphone-13-mini-review\">iPhone 13 mini<\/a> would be the next most logical step.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth bearing in mind that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/iphone-14-pro-max-review\">iPhone 14 Pro Max<\/a> offers the same screen size as the Plus, but adds in features like a faster chip, the Dynamic Island and the always-on display for another $200 \/ \u00a3250 \/ AU$320 \u2013 which makes it the better deal.<\/p>\n<p>As yet there&#8217;s no indication of how big the price cut could be, or how it might affect the pricing of the other models in the range. We&#8217;ve also been hearing that Apple could introduce a more powerful, more expensive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/news\/iphone-15-ultra\">iPhone 15 Ultra<\/a> next year too.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2 id=\"analysis-getting-the-pricing-right\">Analysis: getting the pricing right<\/h2>\n<p>Pricing is always key for any smartphone: the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/best\/best-cheap-phones\">best cheap phones<\/a> may not have the fastest chips or the best screens, but they cost substantially less than the premium flagships on the market, and so still represent good value for money.<\/p>\n<p>As for Apple&#8217;s iPhone series, for the last few years the Pro models have been the handsets with the most appeal. That&#8217;s even more the case with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/iphone-14-pro-review\">iPhone 14 Pro<\/a>, because the less expensive models come with last year&#8217;s A15 Bionic chip inside.<\/p>\n<p>Buyers of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/iphone-14-review\">iPhone 14<\/a> are getting a phone that&#8217;s slower than the Pro, with a camera system that&#8217;s not quite as good, and without several other cool features. Okay it&#8217;s cheaper, but there aren&#8217;t a lot of other reasons to prefer it over the Pro.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll have to wait and see what Apple does in 2023, bearing in mind that it has the budget <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/apple-iphone-se-2022\">iPhone SE (2022)<\/a> on sale as well. Next year could be the year when Apple&#8217;s flagship phone gets closer to mid-range pricing than ever before.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/news\/iphone-15-tipped-for-better-battery-life-thanks-to-new-apple-a17-chip\">iPhone 15 tipped for better battery life thanks to new Apple A17 chip<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" data-reactroot id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent\">\n<section>\n<p>Sign up to get breaking news, reviews, opinion, analysis and more, plus the hottest tech deals!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div data-reactroot id=\"slice-container-authorBio\">\n<p>Dave is a freelance tech journalist who has been writing about gadgets, apps and the web for more than two decades.
