Apple’s forthcoming iPhone 17 Pro is expected to debut at a starting price of $1,049, marking a $50 increase from the iPhone 16 Pro. However, this new model will offer a base storage of 256GB, doubling the capacity compared to its predecessor. Currently, the iPhone 16 Pro starts at $999 for 128GB, with the 256GB variant priced at $1,099, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max already starts at 256GB for $1,199. This move by Apple could be seen as providing better value, offering more storage for a modest price increase and streamlining the product lineup. Reports have suggested that Apple plans to raise prices across the iPhone 17 series due to rising component costs and tariffs. The company is expected to unveil the iPhone 17 lineup on September 9, with a potential release date of September 19.
