iPhone Prices in India Could Rise ₹10,000 From September 8

iPhone Prices in India Could Rise ₹10,000 From September 8
iPhone Prices in India May Rise by ₹10,000 From September 8 · thehansindia.com

A person who often shares news about Apple before the company says anything, named Yogesh Brar, thinks iPhones will cost more money in India soon.

He says all iPhones could become about 10,000 rupees more expensive around September 8.

That is about $100 more.

The same day is when people think Apple will show its new iPhone 18 Pro phones.

Some older phones, like the iPhone 17 Pro and the iPhone 16, might stop being sold.

But nobody knows for sure yet, and even the person who shared the news says Apple usually doesn't tell stores about price changes so early.

Apple's leader, Tim Cook, already made Macs, iPads, and smart home gadgets more expensive in June because making them costs more.

Memory parts got much pricier because so many companies want them for AI computers.

Smart people who study Apple disagree: some think the new iPhone will cost the same, and others think it will cost $100 to $200 more.

If you were already planning to buy an iPhone in India, buying before September 8 could save you money, but only if the news is right.
