Apple has decided to cut the price of 2017 and 2018 iPhones for the Chinese market, offering local vendors substantial price discounts for new devices, according to a report.

China’s National Business Daily reveals that Apple reduced the price of the iPhone XR by as much as 450 yuan (approximately $65), which means that the most affordable 2018 iPhone model now costs 5250 yuan, or about $770.
