iPhone 15 Pro Max price hike likely, says analyst! Will be a first since iPhone 11 series
The days are ticking by fast and the launch of Apple's next iPhone series is getting nearer and nearer. While that is exciting news, there may well be a massive disappointment too. And it all can be blamed on the upgrades. Reports claim that the iPhone 15 Pro Max is expected to get major upgrades such as a USB Type-C port, periscope camera, A17 Bionic SoC, and more. The iPhone 15 series could also feature Apple's Dynamic Island across all models, a feature that has been reserved for the Pro models until now. While these upgrades can certainly enhance the iPhone experience, they will likely come at a cost.
Claims of a reported price increase for Apple's next iPhone series have been circulating for months, and now a recent rumor has shed light on how much it could get hiked by.
According to a report by MacRumors, the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max could get a big price hike. Tim Long, an analyst at British bank Barclays claims that the iPhone 15 Pro will see a $100 price increase over the iPhone 14 Pro which currently costs $999. This means the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro will likely be priced at $1099. Long revealed these details after conversations with supply chain companies located in Asia, where most of Apple's manufacturing facilities are.
On the other hand, the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which is Apple's top-end device, could get an even steeper price increase. The report states that Apple could raise its price by $100 to $200. Therefore, it would be priced between $1199 to $1299 when it launches in September.
The iPhone 15 Pro models could get a titanium alloy frame which would increase durability while making the phone lighter. Moreover, both devices could get an action button like the Apple Watch. Apple analyst Ming-Chi
