How to read this comparison
Prices are Apple’s advertised US starting prices for the base storage configuration, checked October 20, 2026, before tax, trade-in or carrier offers. Storage, color, availability and checkout choices can change the price. iPhone Duo is listed for pre-order; check Apple for delivery dates.
Battery figures are Apple’s laboratory video-playback estimates, not a promise of everyday runtime. Charging requires the specified compatible adapter, sold separately. Display measurements are diagonal; the viewable area is smaller. Water resistance is tested in a laboratory and can diminish with wear. “Not listed” means the feature is not specified in Apple’s comparison for that model.
