Apple unveiled the impressive line of the tenth-anniversary iPhone line complete with face recognition technology that allows users to unlock the gadget by scanning their face.
However, the eye-watering price of the smartphone has shocked many potential owners, leading to a hilarious wave of memes.

Others used SpongeBob SquarePants character Patrick Star’s bargaining line “I have $3.”
We browsed through the micro-blogging site – actually laughing our way through – and came up with a list of our favourite memes on the latest iPhones. Check them out:
