It’s happened at last: for the very first time, Apple has brought the iPhone 15 Pro back to the Apple Store in the U.S. — at significantly reduced prices in refurbished condition.

The rumor aligns with a report from The Information over the weekend saying Apple may begin to stagger releasing new iPhones. That would see high-end versions of the iPhone 18 – including the Pro, Air, and a rumored foldable iPhone – introduced in the fall, before the cheaper standard model and budget “e” version launch in the spring of 2027.

Due to Apple’s reported change of release plans, the standard iPhone 18 may not be available until spring 2027.
