By now, the tech experts and Apple users have a clear idea about the tech giant making a big move in coming September. Some of the recent leaks have already shown the device to be without bezels and also without home buttons.
Even though the latest iPhone 8 might be one of the best devices to own this year, it definitely comes with a fitting price tag. According to Fox News, the new iPhone model would be priced over $1000. In fact, as several tech experts believe, it is one of the biggest and boldest steps taken by the Macbook makers.
FastCo, a source that has enough knowledge about Apple's plans mentioned that the price of Apple iPhone 8 would be somewhere above $1000. Interestingly, it is well above the $650 price tag for the traditional device. However, the iPhone 7 Plus was priced around $1000 including tax and includes similar features the users can find in the upcoming model such as a dual camera system.
Still, with a price of $1000 for iPhone 7 Plus that was the top end version of the Apple device. If the launching price of iPhone 8 is $1000, it means the version with extra storage would cost a lot more as BGR reported. In simple words, the users would be spending more on an Apple phone than they would on a MacBook.
Looking at the fact that Apple sold its flagship device iPhone 7 plus for three months right after its release, it might have thought to test the upper end of the market. The tech geeks and users might as well see some updated iPhone 7 models along with iPhone 8. This would enable Apple to keep the traditional pricing for iPhone 7 and see how much money it can make through Apple iPhone 8.
There is also another argument that stated in order to create a flagship device with the latest features, the cost of manufacturing might be high. To give competition to Samsung on the innovation front, Apple needs to bring in features and for that raising the price might be the only option.
