We are only two days away from the presentation of the new iPhones, and although we already know this year's model range, there is still a question mark over their prices. German magazine Macerkpof but he has come up with a report revealing the starting prices of all three upcoming models. The amounts are given in euros, so we can get a fairly accurate idea of how much new Apple phones will cost in the Czech Republic.
The most interesting thing is that the iPhone Xs will be significantly cheaper compared to its predecessor (i.e. the iPhone X). The phone should start at 909 euros, converted to 23 crowns. The price reduction of CZK 990 is quite noticeable and will certainly have an effect on the price drop of the low-end iPhone X. On the other hand, such a large price difference seems unlikely, especially if we take into account the excellent sales of the current iPhone X.
The larger iPhone Xs Plus (there is also speculation about the designation iPhone Xs Max) will then replace the current iPhone X in terms of pricing and will therefore start at €1. In the Czech Republic, the 149-inch flagship should cost 6,5 crowns. However, it is assumed that this year Apple will offer up to a 29GB variant, so the price of the phone could rise to 990 crowns.
Finally, there remains the 6,1-inch LCD model, which has often been referred to as the successor to the iPhone SE. However, its price is likely to be a disappointment to a significant portion of potential buyers. According to the magazine's sources, the iPhone 9 (or iPhone XC) should cost 799 euros, i.e. the same as the current iPhone 8. On the domestic market, the phone will cost 20 CZK.
Apple allegedly decided on the higher price of the three cheapest iPhones precisely because of the good sales of the iPhone X. They exceeded the expectations of the company and analysts, and Apple only confirmed that the high price of a smartphone is not an obstacle.

Xc will be only 3 thousand cheaper than XS ?? What the hell is this??
It won't be Xc but XR. Personally, I would see XR for 19990 and XS for 23990. That's 4 thousand, but it will still be between XS and XS Plus. That's just the way it is. And the 20 thousand is also quite a psychological amount. Someone simply won't pay more than 20 for a phone as a matter of principle. It's always like this at Apple. You start to pick out your wallet. You configure a Mac Book and find out that a few thousand more is a Mac Book Pro, and then a few thousand more is a Mac Book Pro with a touch bar. You always have to consider what is still worth it and what is not.
Personally, I don't really understand what is unaffordable on a phone for 24. That phone will be perfectly fine for at least 2, but rather 3 years, and you won't have to reach for a successor. In an extreme case, the user can operate it comfortably for the entire period of support and even longer. That's 5 years. I know people who pay 10 a month for cigars and booze. Just one pack of cheap cigarettes a day is 30 x 85 and you are on 2500 per month. It's more about whether you want to pay the money for the phone. I do not have problem with it. I like technology. I'd rather buy a phone than spend it on a stupid vacation. But to each his own.
and at the age of 60 you will sit down with your friends and the others will explain how they went diving and saw corals, visited the pyramids, waterfalls and other amazing experiences and you will explain how you stared at a bitten apple at home that you will throw away in 3 years anyway. wonderful life!
