I think the price drop will be on the 64GB and the 16GB and 128GB will be done away with.
The question is rather, what will become of the devices that are still in stock. Will they see a drop of $100 or more or less?
6S and 6S+
There will be remaining stock to sell. They might discount. I would not expect the new iPhones to cost less than the 6 and 6+ costs.
What I mean is that Apple has some version of the previous model around to sell for a slightly lower price than the newest one. So why would the 6/6+ go away, and if they do, what would be in their place as the slightly cheaper previous model?
Only once have we seen that happen. Traditionally Apple cuts production on the previous model to one memory size and uses that as the inexpensive intro option. I'm sure Apple will continue with that method again this year.
Maybe Apple will offer at 16GB version of the 6 for the budgeted users.
I work for a major wireless carrier we got an email saying that both the 6 and the 6 Plus 64GB and 128GB option would be discontinued as well as the 16GB Plus option. So it looks like Apple will keep the iPhone 6 16GB option and probably only offer it for $99 and drop the 5s to $0.01 apparently?
It's hard to tell since I know a lot of carriers are moving heavily away from subsidy.
