The difference is mostly a technicality, taking into account that I referenced an Apple Premium Reseller site. The iPhone 5s is not discontinued yet and that was exactly the point of the article (mass-production of cheaper iPhone models).
- mikeash 10y agoAre you sure they're not just selling leftover stock of the 5s?
- Jenya_ 10y agoOn the box of purchased iPhone 5s it says - manufactured October 2016. http://www.gadgetsnow.com/tech-news/Apple-denies-it-is-discontinuing-iPhone-5s-6-and-6-Plus-in-India/articleshow/54176034.cms http://www.gadgetsnow.com/tech-news/Apple-denies-it-is-disco...
- mikeash 10y agoCool. I had no idea they did this sort of thing. I just assumed that what they showed on apple.com was it. Searching around, I can still find a bunch of discussion about buying it new, now that I know to look for it.
- coldtea 10y ago>Apple Premium Reseller Apple premium reseller is an empty designation. It has been given to all kinds of ho-hum retailers judging from my country (where we only have those and no official Apple Store) and a couple of other countries I've worked on. It just means the reseller passed a few basic Apple criteria, for support, space, etc. It says nothing about the product line, and being only allowed to sell the latest line up etc.
