It’s a fact: the current economic situation is far from being a cause for celebration. Despite this, Apple has kept the prices of the iPhone stable over the past few years with minimal changes (except for some models). Interestingly, this decision by the company has made the iPhone 15 the cheapest that Apple has ever launched in its history when adjusted for inflation.
According to Perfectrec, the new iPhone 15 would be much cheaper compared to the prices the company has had in the past. In their research, they found that the iPhone 15 is the most affordable model since the original iPhone was launched in 2007. To demonstrate this, Perfectrec has grouped all iPhone models with the lowest memory configuration and adjusted their prices for current inflation. The comparison for the basic iPhones looks like this:
For the assembly of these graphics, they divided the iPhones by models. In this case, a comparison was also made with all the iPhone Pro models, and it was found that the iPhone 15 Pro was the cheapest in its entire range.
Despite the data shown, your perception as a consumer may have been very different. If you think that the iPhone has increased in price over the years, you are correct. Apple’s phone has continued to become more expensive since its release, as you can see below:
Price increase, but only on the iPhone 15 Pro Max
This year, Apple has decided to maintain the prices we saw last year with the iPhone 14 except for one: the iPhone 15 Pro Max. The latter has gone up $100 for its lower-capacity model in the U.S. market. However, in other markets things look different.
In the case of Spain, we are spared this rise. In fact, the iPhone 15 Pro Max remains the same (1,469 euros) and the iPhone 15 Pro even drops 100 euros, leaving it at 1,219 euros.
