Other iPhone mid-year currency price adjustments?

[satchmo]

Apple sets the prices each year when new models are introduced each year, but have they ever made price adjustments mid-year?

I realize currency rates can fluctuate either way.
The rate back in the fall of 2020 was $1 USD= $1.41 CAD
Currently it's more around the $1.26 rate.
So an iPhone 12 mini costs $979 CAD instead of $880.

I mean it would be great if it stayed this rate and the iPhone 13 would be effectively $100 cheaper.

Apple occasionally does currency adjustments. Although it seems they mostly will do it when it is in their favor.

Don't hold your breath. Apple does what is best for their bottom line. They have never done anything for the benefit of their consumers wallet. If anything I could see another price increase.

Yes. Apple has adjusted product prices based upon currency fluctuations.

Yes, mid-cycle adjustments have been made in the past. But the drops have been small, around US$20.
