Jakarta, Selular.ID – Price is usually the least interesting iPhone detail to talk about, but it may be the biggest deciding factor when making a purchase.
As you know, the iPhone 13 is only a few months away from its release, but the existence of the iPhone 12 is still an attraction in itself. The latest report from Sell Cell, reveals that the price of the iPhone 12 Series will be difficult to drop due to its high demand and popularity.
This prediction is reinforced by data on the decline in the price of the iPhone 12 Series for 6 months after launch. According to reports, the iPhone 12 series loses an average of 34.5% of its value after 6 months of launch.
This is quite a bit compared to the iPhone 11 which lost 44% of its value after 6 months of launch..
Consumer Intelligence Research Partners (CIRP) reports that the four iPhone 12 models accounted for 64% of all iPhone sales in the United States during the first quarter of 2021. Despite being the newest series, none of the iPhone 12 series holds the title as the most popular smartphone. . The title fell to the iPhone 11 which managed to account for a total of 24% of iPhone sales.
Speaking of the iPhone 12 mini, this smartphone sold even more than the affordable iPhone SE, and the older iPhone XR. Although the exact number was not detailed, the report says that the iPhone 12 mini accounts for less than 5% of sales.

CIRP notes that demand for the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max is fairly consistent with the latter accounting for 20% of iPhone sales in the United States. The conclusion from a recent CIRP report is that right now people clearly like the bigger iPhone, even though the company has a history of catering to customers looking for a more compact device.
Whatever it is, all these results are of course still good news for Apple’s profit margins. This data shows that the iPhone 12 mini is still one of the best-selling smartphones in the world.
