They didn’t increase prices on iPhones, Apple Watch and Airpods

[ErneX]

Those are next in line, it’s almost guaranteed.

[conductr]

September new versions will likely start at a price point than they would have

[ErneX]

Yes, and seems they are only releasing the Pros and the foldable this year, and will release the base and e models in Spring.

[akmarinov]

For sure but an iPhone has more RAM than a Neo and those went up $100, so they’re at least eating the price difference for another ~3 months

[thewebguyd]

Yeah, iPhone is nearly half of Apple's revenue or more, it's in their interest to eat a little margin away to keep it moving, increase will come with the 18 this fall.

All their other products are lower volume.

[benoau]

Only the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air have 12GB of RAM, and they're ~10 weeks away from new models so probably well past their peak sales.

[ErneX]

Yeah I don’t think they will touch current models.

[axus]

I've heard that the iPhone price is going up, and they've already started paying you more to trade-in the last generation.

[MBCook]

I’d say they’re subsidizing them with the rest but the computers and iPads don’t sell much compared to phones so that doesn’t make a lot of sense.

I happened to buy an iPad 2 days ago, dang I got lucky. I thought they’d announce before the iPhone launch but had no idea it would be this soon.

[furyofantares]

Why would AirPod prices increase?

[kube-system]

Everything competing for fab capacity is more expensive. The Apple H2 is 7nm and TSMC has raised prices for that capacity.

[littlecranky67]

The H2 is also tiny and the price is not per-chip but per wafer - so the price increase should be marginal per chip.

[650REDHAIR]

There are many rumors that the new iPhone 18 Pro will start at ~$1300.

So maybe their mobile hardware will be next.
