Shortly after it was released though, it can be bought at 790.46 AUD. And with the 10th anniversary of Apple coming up, and as they are also releasing the newest flagship which is the iPhone 8, the iPhone 7 can drop further from 627.35 to 501.88 AUD. Based on the price drop pattern that the analysts and experts have seen during the releases of the previous iPhone models, the iPhone 7 price can definitely drop up to 376.41 AUD with the iPhone 8 showing up in the market.

As the rumours have it, the upcoming Apple flagship, iPhone 8, is going to have a price that will be more than 1254.71 AUD. As this can be possible, the iPhone 7 may have a price drop that can be around 125.47 AUD and make its current price a little less of a hindrance to actually own an iPhone 7.
