The iPhone 17 launch is drawing nearer, and the anticipation is steadily increasing. The upcoming Apple iPhone is expected to be the best that Apple has rolled out in quite a few years, representing a significant advancement in mobile technology. It may even be the game-changer iPhone that many have been expecting for long, but Apple has not delivered so far. It will boast the latest chipset, providing enhanced processing power, as well as Apple Intelligence, which is designed to function seamlessly and without any operational flaws. The best part about the upcoming smartphone, particularly for consumers, is that it is causing other iPhones to be sold at discounted prices. This presents a valuable opportunity for individuals seeking a premium device at a more accessible price point. Now, even as there are still a few months to go to September, when the iPhone 17 may be launched, huge iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro price cuts have been rolled out on Amazon.

This development signifies a notable shift in the smartphone market. A notable part of this phenomenon is that iPhones at deeply discounted prices are a relatively rare occurrence. This is simply because the demand for them remains generally strong, and only begins to taper off when the launch of an upcoming iPhone draws near, creating a temporary surplus of available devices. 

iPhone 17s approach fuels excitement, promising Apples best in years with new chip and AI. But ahead of that iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro get huge price cuts on Amazon.

Before picking from either of these smartphones, check out some of the alternatives. These are mostly from Samsung and Google. These smartphones include the Google Pixel 9 series as well as Samsung Galaxy S25 series. You should see which ones meet your requirements best and then decide. Idea is to get the optimal balance between performance and price that you are willing to pay. Do not rush headlong into a deal based just on the budget as at a later time you may not get the results you wanted. Also, do keep in mind, as said earlier, that the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Pro will be launching within months. Before that, the Google Pixel 10 series will arrive, likely in August. And in January, 2026, the Samsung Galaxy S26 will probably hit the shelves. Shop now on Amazon.
