The iPhone 15 Pro will be the most expensive iPhone ever: Apple will raise the price considerably this year.
We are just a few days away from the presentation of the new iPhone 15 and the rumors about the new devices do not stop appearing. We already know practically everything about the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus and about the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, but the latter remains to be discovered. official price.
The iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are expected to maintain a similar price to previous years, but the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max could see a “significant price increase” compared to their predecessorsaccording to the analyst of DigiTimes, Luke Lin. In addition, it reveals the two reasons for this price increase.
The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max will be the most expensive in history
In the United States Apple did not raise the price of the iPhone 14, however in much of the world these devices suffered a significant price increase. This year it expect a rise again, which will also affect the price in dollars of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Lin explains that the line iPhone 15 Pro will see a “major price increase” this year due to two main changes. These changes are important and will mark the main differences of this year’s models:
- The change from stainless steel to titanium in the chassis design.
- The new periscope lens camera system.
However, despite the price increase, Lin still think the iPhone 15 Pro will be the most popular phones of this generation. Something that has already happened during 2023, where the iPhone 14 Pro Max is positioning itself as the best seller.
According to Lin, Apple has ordered between 80 and 90 million units of iPhone 15 for the second half of 2023. They are less than a year ago, when Apple ordered between 90 and 100 million units of iPhone 14. The The most ordered iPhone in this first batch is the iPhone 15 Pro Maxfollowed by the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15, and iPhone 15 Plus.
Despite leaning towards a price increase, Lin is hesitant to say how much they will rise. Previous rumors assure that the iPhone 15 Pro will increase its price by 100 dollars regarding the iPhone 14 Pro and that the iPhone 15 Pro Max could cost up to $200 more than the iPhone 14 Pro Max.
They are quite large price increases, especially if we move them outside the United States, where we already experienced a considerable price increase last year in the iPhone 14 range. We will wait until next week to confirm it, on Tuesday the 12th the new iPhones will be presented 15 at Apple Park.
