Apple has a surprisingly wide range of iPhones for all types of people right now

Apple just announced a new iPhone that costs $1,000 to start. Cue the outrage!

Yes, $1,000 is an outrageously high price for what is functionally similar to the smartphone you have in your pocket. If you're anything like me, you probably balked at the new phone's price.

But there's a crucial message Apple wasn't quite so loud about during its big iPhone party last week: The iPhone line is wide ranging, and offers several different options for different people. Personally, I loved the design of the iPhone 5 and don't want to pay over $500 for a phone — the iPhone SE, as it turns out, is perfect for me at just $350.

Perhaps you prefer the look of the newer, rounder iPhones? There are several options for you as well, all the way up to Apple's soon-to-be-released iPhone X. Take a look at the full lineup:

DON'T MISS: If you think the iPhone X's $1,000 price tag is expensive, see how much it costs around the world

1. iPhone SE, starting at $350 — the Honda Civic of iPhones.

Think of Apple's iPhone SE as the current entry-level iPhone. It looks like an iPhone 5, with a slightly harder-edged design than the newer, curvier iPhones. To that end, it has a smaller screen than every other iPhone available — its 4-inch screen seems adorably small when compared to the iPhone X's nearly half foot, 5.8-inch screen.

That's where the limitations end.

The iPhone SE has the same guts as an iPhone 6S, and a camera that's comparable in quality to any major smartphone. It's got the same base amount of storage (32 GB) as the iPhone 6S and iPhone 7. It runs the same version of iOS, Apple's mobile operating system, that every new iPhone does.

Best of all: It's got a headphone jack, which either doesn't matter to you at all or is of tantamount importance. And did I mention that it starts at $350? That's an insanely good price for such a powerful little smartphone.

2. iPhone 6S, starting at $450 — the Nissan Maxima of iPhones.

For those willing to spend an extra hundo, the iPhone 6S is a fantastically powerful iPhone that looks near-identical to even the newest iPhone models.

Yes, the iPhone 8 has an all-glass design now. And yes, the iPhone X is like 90% screen (except for that weird little notch). But the iPhone 6S is a gorgeous, futuristic-looking device that costs far less than its only-slightly-more-capable descendents.

For an extra $100 over the iPhone SE, you get the new model design with the old-school convenience of still having a headphone jack. That's right — the iPhone 6S is the last model of iPhone to include the headphone jack. Again, that's either hugely important to you or totally meaningless. For those of you for whom it matters, this is the one to buy.

The other iPhone options are where we enter the upper tier of luxury items.

3. iPhone 7, starting at $550 — the BMW 5-series of iPhones.

The iPhone 7 is expensive starting at $550, but still cheaper than much of the competition. It's dead in the middle in terms of pricing on the spectrum of iPhones, even though it's an extremely powerful smartphone.

The iPhone 7 is also an outrageously pretty device, and the first iPhone to start introducing some of the more future-looking features of the newest iPhones:

-It removed the headphone jack for the first time, pushing users toward either Bluetooth headphones or the optional dongle attachment.

-It replaced the traditional Home button with a virtual Home button that "feels" like a normal button.

-It added splash resistance, once again enabling friends to push each other into swimming pools.

-It swapped the Apple A9 processor that powers the iPhone SE and iPhone 6S for the newer Apple A10 chip.

If you're looking for a more expensive, more powerful, slightly different-looking iPhone — but not looking to go bananas — the iPhone 7 is for you.
