Report claims the iPhone 15 Pro Max will cost a crazy $2,900

If you're thinking of picking up a new iPhone later this year you should probably think again if rumors of a new, higher price are to be believed. Especially if you had your eye on the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Historically the most expensive iPhone of all, the Pro Max is reportedly going to break new ground and become the most expensive iPhone ever when the iPhone 15 series is announced this September. That's according to a new report by China's United Daily News.

According to that report the iPhone 15 Pro Max will cost as much as RMB 20,000 which works out to be around $2,900 at the current exchange rate. To put that into perspective the iPhone 14 Pro Max currently sells for $1,099 in its 128GB configuration. Even the range-topping 1TB model sells for just $1,599. The prospect of Apple increasing the price so much is, frankly, insane. But that's what the report is claiming.

I am ready for a wired phone, too, but for a different reason. A desk phone will not follow me around or pop up ads because it was eavesdropping.

“What does it do for that kind of money????????/”

From what I see, owners of those things just stare at them all day, never get or make phone calls.

If it can’t project a Hologram of beautiful woman for me to talk to, what good is it?

“$3,000 for a cell phone?

A sucker born every minute...”

If they can get enough people to pay it, then God bless them.

Keep the phone you have and make a payment on your student loan.

you think $3k for a cell phone is bad, just wait a few years and check the price of used gasoline powered cars

gasoline powered car prices are already insane but just wait a few more years.

we will be dreaming we could get a used 2003 Mazda with 400,000 miles for $30k

$3,000 for a cell phone?

most people still actually believe there was a Pandemic , they even wear masks and take the "Vax" still.

so signing up for slavery to a phone is not hard to believe

I love my iPhone 11 Pro. I was gonna upgrade to the iPhone 14 Pro, but I needed new hearing aids. And glasses…

I’m good with my 11 Pro, I have 256 GB on it.

That’s a bunch of irresponsible hogwash. And this dishonesty will permeate the consciousness of the less discerning among us. The author should be ignored.

Are you thinking that the newest top of the line iPhone will not be expensive?

I would like wired phones for the house if it wasn’t for the cost.

I just remembered that I had them before I moved here, business was the reason or the excuse, multiple remote forwarding numbers.
