However, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2025\/02\/19\/apple-discontinues-iphone-se\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">iPhone SE line was entirely discontinued<\/a> when the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2025\/02\/19\/apple-announces-iphone-16e\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">iPhone 16e launched<\/a>, and the iPhone Plus line is being phased out.<\/p>\n<p>Below, we have listed 25 products that were discontinued by Apple this year.<\/p>\n<p>iPhones<\/p>\n<p>Apple discontinued the third-generation iPhone SE in February, after introducing the iPhone 16e. As a result, Apple no longer sells any iPhone models with a Home button, Touch ID, LCD screen, a sub-6-inch screen size, or Lightning.<\/p>\n<p>The original iPhone SE was released in March 2016. That model&#8217;s design was largely based on the iPhone 5s, with key specs including a 4-inch display, a Touch ID home button, and an aluminum and glass frame with chamfered edges. However, the device was powered by a newer A9 chip from the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus.<\/p>\n<p>Apple went on to release two more iPhone SE models in 2020 and 2022, respectively, with those devices having a similar design as the iPhone 8.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the iPhone Plus has effectively been replaced by the ultra-thin iPhone Air in Apple&#8217;s smartphone lineup. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2025\/02\/19\/apple-discontinues-iphone-14\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Both the iPhone 14 Plus<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2025\/09\/09\/apple-discontinues-iphone-15\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">iPhone 15 Plus were discontinued<\/a> this year, and it is only a matter of time before the iPhone 16 Plus is axed too.
