DAILY MAIL
Apple’s priciest iPhone 15 model is expected to be the company’s priciest phone yet and cost more than $2,000.
Industry insiders are reporting that the iPhone 15 Max 2TB will be priced at $2,099, well above the entry point for a 13-inch MacBook Pro laptop ($1,299).
Last year’s iPhone 14 Pro Max 1TB started at $1,599, for comparison.
As the name suggests, the new top-end iPhone would be the first to have two terabytes of storage, and it’s rumored to feature a titanium finish, an upgraded camera and a powerful new chip.
Apple is set to unveil the iPhone 15 on September 12, but the Pro Max likely will not ship until October due to supply chain issues.
BGR shared a report detailing the increased price tag, as Apple increased the maximum storage space to 2TB.
A terabyte equals 1,024 gigabytes (GB), which can hold 555,555 JPEG images.
This month, the storage capacity claim was also seen in a Weibo post, adding more weight to the rumor.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max will likely be available in the standard 256GB, 512GB and 1TB.
However, last year’s iPhone 14 Pro models were also rumored to come with the 2TB option – but that did not happen.
The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max were the first Apple smartphones to include 1TB due to improved camera features that eat up storage.
