- iPhone 17 becomes costlier in Japan, impact in India too.
iPhone 17: Apple has recently increased the prices of many of its products. In such a situation, a question is arising in the minds of those buying a new iPhone whether it will be right to buy iPhone 17 now or not. Actually, Apple launches its new iPhone model every year. Besides, a decline in the prices of old iPhone models is also seen before the launch. But it seems a little difficult for this to happen this year. Yes, it is believed that there may not be any fall in the prices of old models this time before the launch of iPhone 18.
Why will the price of iPhone 17 not be reduced?
According to media reports, every year before the launch of the new Apple iPhone, there was a huge decline in the prices of old models. But this time it seems a bit difficult for it to happen. Actually, the company is under pressure to increase the cost of chip, display, camera and other components. Apart from this, new tax and trade policies in many countries are also continuously increasing the prices of Apple products. In such a situation, it is believed that this time the company will not cut the prices of its old models.
Will the price of the old model reduce after the launch of iPhone 18?
It is very difficult to say this. It has been said in many reports that this time even after the launch of iPhone 18, only a slight reduction in the price of iPhone 17 may be seen. In such a situation, those who are looking for a discount of Rs 18 to 22 thousand on old models are going to be disappointed this time. Not only this, it is believed that this time iPhone 18 can also be launched in the market with increased prices.
Buy Now or Wait?
This decision completely depends on your need. In fact, if you need a new iPhone immediately and the iPhone 17 has everything you need, then you should not wait for the prices to drop. But if you want to take advantage of Apple’s new features, better camera, fast processor and longer software support, then you should wait for iPhone 18.
iPhone 17 price increased in Japan
According to media reports, there has been a jump in the prices of iPhone 17 in Japan. The iPhone 17 256GB model which was available for 129,800 yen in November 2025, is now available for 142,780 yen. The reason behind this has been said to be expensive chips. In such a situation, it is believed in India also that there cannot be any fall in the prices of iPhone 17. On the contrary, older models can definitely be a bit expensive.
