Will you buy the 10 years old iPhone 4/4s for 1000 yuan ($150)?


How many of us still remember the ten years old iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s? Probably, not many of us were smartphone users at the time but these devices were top-notch at the time. In fact, the iPhone 12 inherited some patterns from the iPhone 4. As a result, these smartphones are back in the market but only as specimens.Ā According to a Chinese merchant, the price of Apple iPhone 4 specimens ranges from 800 yuan ($120) to 1,000 yuan ($150). In contrast, the iPhone 4/4s currently sells for 40 yuan ($6) to 80 yuan ($12) in the second-hand market.

iPhone brief history

The smartphone industry has been consistently developing and the rate of development in recent times is rapid. Back in the day, phones were minute devices with a small display. We can not say the same of today’s smartphones. Apple’s iPhones have come a long way since Steve Jobs unveiled the maiden iPhone on Jan. 9, 2007. After that, we saw the commercialization of the 3G network. To this end, Apple skipped the iPhone 1 and released the iPhone 3G in 2008. In June 2009, the company announced the iPhone 3GS. A few months later, we had the iPhone4 and the rest is history.
