Apple iPhone 12 prices in India are relatively higher than the iPhone 11 series. Apple announced the price of all four 12 iPhone models which start at Rs 69,900 and go up to a whopping Rs 1,59,900.
Looking at the exorbitant prices, especially of the Pro models in India, netizens are rather planning a trip to Dubai to get the iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Apple iPhone 12 Pro price in India starts at Rs 1,19,900 for the 128GB base model. The same model with 256GB and 512GB storage configuration is priced at Rs 1,29,900 and Rs 1,49,900.
Compare that to the iPhone 11 Pro launch price, which was initially available for Rs 99,900, the iPhone 12 Pro saw a Rs 20,000 jump in price tag.
Prices of iPhones are much higher in India compared to other parts of the world, which is mainly due to the import duties and taxes. Soon after the prices were announced, netizens figured out that purchasing an iPhone 12 Pro from Dubai would not only be cheaper but also help them save some money.
iPhone 12 Pro price in Dubai starts at Dh 4,199, which is roughly Rs 84,000. A round trip flight ticket fare to Dubai would cost roughly Rs 18,000. Add the cost of iPhone 12 Pro, which is Rs 84,000, and other expenses roughly Rs 15,000, making it a total of 1,17,000.
Apple iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro pre-orders go live at 12 am on October 23.
