I'm really interested in knowing for how much can people get iphones around the world. I'm talking about legal and brand new iphones, bought from legitimate stores and not second hand.

So just for this example, for how much could you buy an iPhone 11 Pro MAX 256gb where you live?

 I'll save you having to wade through all the replies - all prices are here:

 Apple phones are the same price everywhere.   The difference in cost is due to the tax payable which depends on the country you purchase it in.  Anyway, all the info you need is on that site.

The real question is, how many months of monthly wage you need to purchase one. That would reveal you the shocking truth of the world.

In my country? 400 months? People don't normally buy those, besides its a sure way of getting yourself mugged/killed by criminals. It is the no.1 most coveted object and they won't hesitate to point a gun to your face so you give it to them as soon as you show it in public, at any time of the day.

Well, now with the quarantine, its probably a bit better, but after we go back to "normal life", that's what normal life is. Never carry those things in poorer countries, just like you should never wear gold as you are painting yourself a target.

If you ever need to travel, always have the cheapest possible android phone. This is another reason why you must not depend on Apple only apps like facetime; avoid like the plague. Besides you should be using Jitsi anyway.

Is it a bad investment? yes it is a bad investment. It could cost you your life.

The price is determined by country exchange rate and purchasing power. Why spending  so much when one can get a better bergain for alternative.

You mean Android? Android and IOS are not same, IOS are over priced for sure but you can feel the difference while using it but you are going to pay for everything you wanted to use in Apple store but on Android you can get cracks for any apps with no cost but don't forget that you are risking your complete privacy for few dollars.So its upto you the price or the privacy is more important. :D

I have never owned an Iphone nor will be. The brand is known and there is a sense of upgraded lifestyle when you own their latest release. The brand is what you are buying to them and it has its own operating system and features that you will never get from other os.

I am more with android and happily using it, I'm happy to explore someday with their operating system but buying one, not in my mind.

Here is the local quote in the Philippines for iPhone 11 Pro MAX 256gb - P84,990 which is approximately 1700usd:

Thanks, that's very helpful. However, here in Portugal I can buy that iphone for €1320 with 24 months of warranty from local stores, and if I buy directly from Apple I'll have to pay €1449. That's why I'm asking, there seems to be always a cheaper way of buying them in every country.

That's crazy! Can I ask you where are you from?

price of iPhone max 256 in my country price $ 1800 I think is the pretty expensive price of iPhone lot of people here who want to buy the iPhone the most current of specific very nice and I myself also want to buy iPhone for the moment this I still saving to buy a mobile phone this.

In my country, iphone is so much costly. People pay million of rupees to buy it.. people are very crazy for iphone. They are ready to pay any amount for it even some are ready to sell their kidney for buying iphone. Iphone itself a brand have a great image in the people minds but it also a 2nd love for most of the people

Well, it's $1251 in Ukraine.

You guys have upgrade plans that are cheaper from the Telcos, right?

My relatives living there are mainly using iPhones.

About 1900$ in Bangladesh.
