In the next year, such generosity is not worth waiting for - all iPhone 12 will be significantly more expensive than iPhone 11. About it reports known insider Ming-Chi Kuo.
According to the source, there are at least two reasons for a rise in prices. First - the appearance in smartphones 5G-modems, significantly increasing the cost of devices. Most likely, Apple will buy them from Qualcomm.
The second reason - the transition to a new method of processing and integration of composite materials, which form the basis of a metal frame devices. Earlier, Kuo has repeatedly said the appearance of new buildings iPhone 4 in style. Apparently, such a redesign would cost dearly.
12 improvements in the iPhone will be a lot, but it is stronger than the body, and other modems will affect the final price. For example, if the current iPhone 11 Pro Max in the US is from 1099 dollars (≈71 600 rubles), the iPhone price tag 12 may exceed $ 1 200 (≈78 200 rubles).
For comparison, the flagship Samsung 5G-cost from $ 1 300 (≈84 700 rubles), thus increasing the price of the future iPhone 12 looks quite natural. What do you think?
