Me too. Note that a new smartphone's price is quite affordable for most. I think that the ratio of price and quality will be attractive to many.

It's true, for example, people in post-soviet countries: they will never pay a 2-months salary for iPhone 6 or 6+, people underappreciate what Apple did yesterday.
 
Even for me, I still have iPhone 4s and I can afford myself iPhone 6, but I don't want to buy this huge, clunky phone. iPhone SE is a great alternative.

It is sad, but true. I believe that a new product will not only change people's opinions about smartphones but also improve the sales performance.

One can say that now iPhones will please anyone, even the most fastidious customer.

Of course, I believe that this is a part of their new strategy: good, better, the best. Which might not match with how we used to identify Apple in the past - only the best products. But this is just the way it is for now, they have to prosper in highly competitive niche.
 
"In what was expected to be a tough quarter for Apple (AAPL), fiscal-second-quarter results for the company came in below consensus on both the top and bottom lines. Revenues of $50.55 billion missed analysts' $51.97 billion consensus, while the $1.90 in earnings per share that Apple reported fell roughly 10 cents short of consensus. As for guidance, Apple said it now sees third-quarter revenues at $41 billion to $43 billion vs. analysts' $47.32 billion consensus. For the quarter, sales of 51.2 million iPhone units actually came in slightly better than consensus expectations for 50.5 million. Apple also announced a $50 billion increase to its capital-return program, including a $35 billion boost to the company's share-repurchase authorization. Additionally, the tech giant added $15 billion (or 10%) to its quarterly dividend, boosting the payout to 57 cents per share, or $2.28 on an annualized basis. CEO Tim Cook highlighted growing revenue contributions from Apple's services business as a key positive"
