Apple has finally confirmed the launch of the new iPhone 17 series will go ahead on the 9th of September, with Tim Cook teasing an \u201cawe-dropping\u201d Apple Event that has fans buzzing. We\u2019re expecting four new models this year, with rumours pointing to exciting upgrades in design, performance, and even a new model to replace the Plus. But the big question on everyone\u2019s mind is: how much is the iPhone 17 going to cost?<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re planning to buy a new iPhone, you\u2019ll want to know the expected prices of the new iPhone before launch day. So, let\u2019s go through the rumours and compare them to last year\u2019s models to get an idea of the potential new iPhone price.<\/p>\n
Every year, there are whispers of price hikes, yet Apple usually holds firm on their pricing. But 2025 feels different. Rumours suggest we could see a $50 international price increase (which means a \u00a350 price hike for us in the UK). Some rumours claim this increase is just on the iPhone 17 Air and iPhone 17 Pro models, though some insiders claim all four models will see the bump.<\/p>\n
Adding fuel to the speculation are political factors. Earlier this year, President Trump threatened to impose a 25% tariff on iPhones manufactured outside the US. Reports indicate the new Apple iPhone models will be produced in India, meaning tariffs could play a role in the iPhone 17 price.<\/p>\n
So, how much will the iPhone 17 cost if these rumours are true? Let\u2019s look at some numbers.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a side-by-side look at the iPhone 16 prices and the potential iPhone 17 prices if the $50 hike goes ahead:<\/p>\n
