Macworld:

By essentially taking an iPhone 8 and swapping out its processor for the company’s latest-and-greatest A13 Bionic, Apple is able to profitably sell a $399 phone that gives a lot of bang for the buck.

How good of a value is it, really? Perhaps a few charts will make everything more clear. By taking performance metrics and dividing it by the base starting price for every new iPhone you can buy, we are able to get a measure of performance-per-dollar.

This is an interesting but odd way to look at the “value” of the iPhone SE. Sure it may show the iPhone SE in a good light, but it also shows that looking at data this way may skew your opinions about purchasing the latest iPhone.
