iPhone Price Increase News: If you have been planning to buy iPhone 17 for a few days or are thinking of buying it in the coming time, then this news is important for you. In the last few hours, a news is spreading rapidly on social media that the prices of iPhone 17 series may increase by ₹ 50,000 in India. Now the question is whether this news is true or just a rumour? Is Apple really going to increase the prices of its new models so much and if yes, when is this shock going to happen? Let us know the truth about this…
Is the price of iPhone 17 really going to increase?
It is not completely confirmed yet. This news started with a social media post by a tipster, who shared the list of alleged new prices of the iPhone 17 series. There has been no official statement from Apple on this yet. So for now, consider it as a leak or guess, not confirmed news. But there is a reason why this rumor is spreading so fast, Apple has already increased the prices of some of its MacBook, iPad and HomePod models in India by 15-25% last week. So people are feeling that the turn of iPhone may also come.
How much can the price of iPhone 17 increase?
If this leak proves to be true, then the biggest blow may be to the buyers of Pro and Pro Max, whose price may jump by 23% to 33%. The increase in remaining models may be around 12-15%. iPhone 17 will be available for ₹ 94,900 instead of ₹ 82,990. iPhone 17e may increase from ₹64,900 to ₹74,900. The price of iPhone Air can increase from ₹1,19,900 to ₹1,34,900, iPhone 17 Pro from ₹1,34,900 to ₹1,54,900-₹1,69,900 and iPhone 17 Pro Max from ₹1,49,900 to ₹1,84,900-₹1,99,900 lakh.
Is iPhone 17 Pro Max going to be the most expensive?
According to the leaked list, the biggest impact may be on the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Its price can go directly from ₹ 1,49,900 to ₹ 1,99,900, that is, there can be a difference of about ₹ 50,000. One reason for this is that the Pro and Pro Max models use more premium camera and chip hardware, which is most affected by the lack of memory chip. So if you are thinking of buying Pro Max, then you should pay maximum attention to this news.
When can these iPhone prices come into effect?
Some social media posts claimed that this increase could start ‘from today’, but there is no concrete evidence for this. On the other hand, one thing is worth noting, Apple’s usual method is that it decides the price of a model only at the time of new launch and then does not change it in between. Meaning, if we look at history, a sudden increase in the price of an ongoing model like iPhone 17 would be different from Apple’s usual pattern. Therefore, experts are also advising to be cautious regarding these exact numbers. It is possible that prices may increase further, but it is too early to say exactly this much and right now.
Even if the price of iPhone increases, what is the reason?
A major reason behind this is the worldwide shortage of memory chips. Due to the huge demand from AI companies, the same memory chips that are used in smartphones and gaming devices are now becoming expensive and less available. This is why Apple has already increased the prices of MacBook, iPad and HomePod. If the same pressure falls on the iPhone, then it is not impossible for the price to increase in the future.
