iPhone 18 Pro Models Could Be Up to $300 More Expensive, Says Analyst


This year's iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max could be $250-$300 more expensive than existing iPhone 17 Pro models due to higher silicon and memory costs, an analyst claimed today. According to an earnings note by Jeff Pu of GF Securities, higher 2nm silicon and DRAM/NAND costs could drive the price hikes, as Apple grapples with global component shortages owing to the AI infrastructure buildout. Currently, the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max start at $1,099 and $1,199, respectively.
