The price of the iPhone 15 Pro model is rumoured to increase significantly this year. Price leaks for 2023 iPhones have been numerous, but the most recent one comes from reputable Wall Street analyst Dan Ives, who previously issued a warning about the high cost of the iPhone 14 series. In an interview with CNBC, he asserted that Apple would raise the price of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max by up to $200 (about Rs 16,490). Here are some specifics.
The price of iPhone 15 Pro versions is rumoured to increase significantly: Explained
Although the analyst has not provided specific pricing information, she predicts that the Pro models cost around $200. When converted, this comes to around Rs 16,490 in India. This means that Apple intends to raise the price substantially. According to the quoted source, the corporation didn't increase the costs of the iPhone 14 Pro models in the US, but the merits of this year's models will be significantly higher in this country. Unfortunately, the other international regions that saw a significant price increase on iPhone 14 Pro models will see a jump again in 2023, according to the source.
Recall that the base edition of the iPhone 14 Pro cost Rs 1,29,900 in India, while the iPhone 14 Pro was unveiled in the US for $999 (about Rs 82,380). Therefore, if the business does raise the price by $200, it would be $1,199 in the US. When converted, this comes to approximately Rs 98,850 in India. However, don't expect Apple to introduce the iPhone 15 Pro at the same price because the corporation imposes GST, customs, and other fees. The cost of the iPhone 14 Pro in India was over Rs 47,500 more than in the US.
The price of the iPhone 15 Pro version is expected to be high.
Like the iPhone 14 Pro, the iPhone 14 Pro Max was introduced for $1,099, or around Rs 90,626. The iPhone 15 Pro Max could cost $1,299 (approximately Rs 1,07,090), an increase of up to $200. However, the cost in India will be different. The pricing of the iPhone 14 Pro Max in India last year was Rs 1,39,900, which indicates a difference in price of Rs 32,800 between this market and the US. Apple may decide to maintain the exact pricing in India for the new iPhone 15 Pro variants. The price information for India has yet to be made available. The costs for the iPhones 12, 13, and 14 remained the same. Therefore, several rumours have indicated that the iPhone 15 may also see a price increase. However, this still needs to be clarified.
Because Apple typically introduces its new iPhones in September, we are almost two months away from the launch of the iPhone 15 series. The same is anticipated to occur this year as well. More information about the 2023 iPhones will become available as the debut event draws nearer.
