Comparing iPhone 16 Series Prices in India with US, Canada, Singapore, and Dubai: A Comprehensive Analysis by The Times of India
In a recent study conducted by The Times of India, it has been revealed that the prices of the iPhone 16 series in India are significantly higher compared to countries like the US, Canada, Singapore, and Dubai.
The study found that the iPhone 16 series, which includes the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max, is priced at an average of 20-30% higher in India than in the US, Canada, Singapore, and Dubai. This has sparked outrage among Indian consumers who feel they are being unfairly charged for the latest Apple devices.
For example, the base model of the iPhone 16 in the US is priced at around $999, while in India it is priced at around ₹1,20,000. Similarly, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is priced at around $1,099 in the US, but in India, it is priced at around ₹1,50,000.
The study also found that the prices of the iPhone 16 series in Canada, Singapore, and Dubai are also lower compared to India. In Canada, the iPhone 16 is priced at around $1,099, in Singapore it is priced at around $1,100, and in Dubai it is priced at around $1,150.
Many Indian consumers have taken to social media to express their frustration over the exorbitant prices of the iPhone 16 series in India. Some have even called for a boycott of Apple products until the prices are lowered to be more in line with international markets.
Apple has yet to respond to the study or the backlash from Indian consumers. It remains to be seen if the company will adjust its pricing strategy in India to make the iPhone 16 series more affordable for Indian consumers.
