According to experts, today many users consider apple smartphones too expensive. The Coopertinos themselves also admit that their devices are quite expensive, but according to the latest rumors, somehow radically change the situation do not plan. Moreover, sources report a further increase in the price of the iPhone.
According to the resource WccFTech, at the start of sales the new iPhone XR 2019, which Apple will introduce in September this year, will cost in China 6,800 yuan or about 989 dollars. For comparison, the cost of the basic version of the 6.1-inch iPhone in Chinese stores now starts at $900.
As for the successors of the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, the prices for them will also rise slightly. According to the source, the iPhone XI will cost $1,290 and the iPhone XI Max $1,420. Thus, the cost of basic versions of new apple smartphones should grow by about 100 dollars.
If this information is confirmed, iPhone sales could decline even further. Already, some analysts are predicting low demand for the iPhone 11. Experts cite the lack of innovation and high prices as the main reasons.
