As the tech world eagerly awaits the global launch of Apple's iPhone 15 series in September, pricing details for the upcoming models have surfaced online, giving users a glimpse of what to expect. The iPhone 15 lineup is speculated to include four variants - iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Plus, and iPhone 15 Pro Max. According to leaked information from Barclays analyst Tim Long, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are expected to be priced similarly to their predecessors.
While the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are likely to maintain similar price points as the previous generation devices, the Pro models are expected to see a slight increase in price. The iPhone 15 Pro may see a $100 price hike from its predecessor, while the iPhone 15 Pro Max could be priced $200 higher. For reference, the iPhone 14 Pro was launched with a starting price of Rs 1,29,900, and the iPhone 14 Pro Max started at Rs 1,39,900.
Apple is no stranger to speculation and leaks ahead of its product launches, and the iPhone 15 series is no exception. Despite the rumored price hikes for the Pro models, industry insiders suggest that the demand for the iPhone 15 series is likely to match that of the current iPhone 14 series. In preparation for the anticipated demand, Apple is reportedly planning to produce a staggering 85 million units of the iPhone 15 series this year.
The company is banking on the appeal of the Pro models, even with their higher price tags, as enthusiasts are drawn to the advanced features and cutting-edge technology that these devices offer. Apple's Pro line has been popular among consumers who value top-of-the-line specifications and performance.
However, amidst the excitement surrounding the launch, there have been murmurs of a possible delay in the iPhone 15 series debut. According to Wamsi Mohan, a global securities analyst at Bank of America, the iPhone 15 series launch might be pushed to the fourth quarter of this year. The delay speculation comes after conducting thorough channel checks within Apple's supply chain. As of now, the analyst has not provided specific reasons for the potential delay.
Apple enthusiasts eagerly await official announcements from the tech giant, as they anticipate new innovations and features that the iPhone 15 series will bring. With Apple known for its cutting-edge technology and customer-centric approach, the iPhone 15 series is sure to set new benchmarks in the world of smartphones.
As September approaches, all eyes are on Apple's grand unveiling event, where the company is expected to showcase the iPhone 15 series to the world, unveiling its latest creations and captivating users with the promise of a new era of mobile technology.
