In the US, the 16e’s savings vs. the 17 are about 25%. In Brazil, considering retail prices, that gap can exceed 50% — precisely 52.4% when comparing BRL 3,299 (16e low) to BRL 6,929 (17 low).
For the most part yes, but from my read of it I'd say the intended point is to check the local value proposition, compared to what the larger (mainly US focused) reviewers may say.

There are exceptions—“the iPhone of the year” models rarely see deep cuts soon after launch.

Ehhh I mean that's more market forces doing their thing, and something something no bad product, only bad price*. I'd say Apple's failed to reasonably price their product in the rest of the world and the price is right in exactly one country. Not ideal.
