Can a badge-worthy mod resolve please? Author’s nearly 2 months inactive. Thanks!

@TexanElite lets get this resolved!

predictedNO

Why the early close date, more than 2 months before likely resolution?

@deagol fixed

This includes the $30 connectivity discount in the US, right?

@deagol No it would not, since that requires activation with a carrier. This, I believe, would follow from the logic that taxes are not included in the price for the market. Not likely to make a difference, anyhow, I'd be very surprised if Apple decided to price their base phone at $829 out of spite

@TexanElite but that’s indeed the current US base-model pre-tax price of the >6-months-old 14 (SIM-free). Check it out: https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-14/6.1-inch-display-128gb-midnight-unlocked

In fact that same $829 has been the original US pre-tax, SIM-free, base-model pricing since the 12 in 2020 (gonna be 3 years) as well as the 13:

So, not sure what you mean by “out of spite” since $829 would be keeping the same pricing for 3+ years, despite high inflation last year. Unless of course, you include the $30 carrier discount making it $799, which is the price Apple most prominently uses in their marketing and what most people know about. Hence, my question.

predictedNO

@deagol Oh i see, then yes. I meant out of spite in terms of the market, but I see what you mean now lol; it costs 829 if you don't get a carrier with it. I'm contradicting myself a bit, but I think it's expected to go off the advertised price, so i'll include the $30 discount

@TexanElite ok thanks
