There are rumours floating around about the iPhone 17 price hike in India—claiming that its MRP could go up by as much as ₹7,000 soon. Honestly, it’s hard to say how much truth there is to this. Some people are claiming it’s due to stock shortages for this particular model, others say that it is the increased chip prices that might lead Apple to take such a drastic measure.
But here’s the thing—neither Apple nor any other reliable source has confirmed this rumour yet. For now, it looks like just another piece of fake news that pops up every now and then. After all, it would make more sense to offer discounts rather than increase prices, especially for a device like iPhone 17 which is already ridiculously expensive (and that’s putting it lightly). Sure, Apple is known for raising prices, but even they probably wouldn’t go as far as (or rather as low as) jacking up the price of a product after its launch, right? I mean, I really hope not!
So, no need to panic just yet. If anything like this iPhone 17 price hike is actually in the works, we will know soon enough.
