The fact is that the cost for a Swiss resident is not the same as for a resident of Spain or Mexico, and the difference is considerable, being a simple whim for some, and a terrible effort for others, and, nevertheless, the phone is exactly the same, so the truth is that it leaves us in a bad place.
How much does it cost to win an iPhone depending on the country?
These data that we will see below show an average, that is, there will be people who need much more time, and others less. However, if we go to official numbers, and assuming that the desired model is a 128 GB iPhone 16 Pro, without going to the most expensive, but not the cheapest either, it would take 15 working days to do so, that is, if we work from Monday to Friday, it would be 3 weeks, or about 120 hours of workIt may seem like a lot, but it is not impossible to get it either, and it will simply require a lot of effort.
The problem is when we compare it with other countries, and that is that In Switzerland, for example, they only need 4 days for this, that is, the time in which you can spend a cold at home, a Swiss man gets the money for his iPhone 16 Pro, so getting one will be super easy, and although it is obviously not a cheap phone, it is something for which they do not look much at the wallet, and for them the Apple brand is not synonymous with something expensive, as it can be in Latin America or Spain.
It does not only depend on the average salary of the country, since in other countries, and we do not have to go very far, such as Portugal, apart from having a lower salary, which would mean they would need a month’s work, they also have a higher VAT, being 23% instead of the 21% that there is in Spain, so they earn less and it costs them more.
However, this does not end there, since At the top we have a country like Türkiye, where 73 working days would be needed.which could correspond to almost 4 months, to be able to have an iPhone 16 Pro, so we can’t complain that much. You have the table here, where you can see the Latin countries and see where it would be more feasible to go to work, if we want to get one quickly.
We can also see how in the United States the cost is very low in relation to the working days to get one, so the fact that they raise the price or not every year hardly matters to them, or not as much as to a European or Latin American, where a small increase can mean many hours of work to get it.
And you, in which country do you live? What would be the maximum number of days worked that you would pay for an iPhone? Leave us a comment with your opinion on the matter.
