iPhone 18 Pro Starts at $1,199, Pro Max at $1,299

$1,399 for 18Pro 512gb seems .... ok

BUT $1,799 FOR 1TB ! WOAH!

!

Yep, the only thing coming close to $1200 is the $1350 offered for trading in a MBP.

This will be "free" or near free on a 3 year contract with most major US carriers shortly if people are OK with that of course.

I know this works for many, but every time I look into switching to a carrier for one of these deals...where we need 2 new phones and are paying $30 unlimited flat per line, it still works out better or almost the same to buy the phones outright.

$300 more expensive for the 1TB and $500 more expensive for the 2TB good thing I only need 256gb

Fully agree! I did all the math and with 2 phones only the benefit is paying for it over 3 years instead of outright, but it offsets the upfront cost significantly.

Though it is only a $100 increase in the US, in my country the increase is approximately equal to $315 (for 18 Pro Max). Steep hike!!

This is almost identical to 17 Pro max minus the 2 nm chip and more expensive. Why would anyone buy this over 17 pro max?

Because spending an extra $100 for better battery for a device I use everyday isn't a world ending decision if you only need 512 or 256 gb.

Has the "$1500 trade in value" not gone live yet? Just checked Apple's preorder page for the 18 PM and even the newest 17 PM is not giving that much trade in value.

Wait for the reviews to see the best use cases for the iPhone Duo.
The Fold sounds better than the Duo.

$1200 for 256GB is crazy

You’re not only getting 256GB of storage for $1200…

Why would you upgrade if you already have a 17 pro max?
If you have the money sure but people don’t upgrade phones every year like they use to.
I have a 15 pro max and it’s still runs great. If I did upgrade it would be the foldable.

But let’s see.

Faster charging
Longer battery life
Better graphics and cpu performance
Variable aperture and camera performance
Smaller Dynamic Island
Glass is more seamless with the aluminum body colorwise.
Two new colors

Feels like a S year, Fold is the one to get if you’re upgrading.

S year is always the one to get.
