These Apple products don’t come cheap brooo, especially not a newly released iPhone.

Apart from the pricing that makes you exhale in frustration, the other Apple issue that people regularly complain about is the “Apple’s ‘unfair’ pricing in countries outside the US”, as reported by 9to5mac.

So in the same report, 9to5mac did some digging & it looks like iPhone 12 Pro prices in India have spiralled so high that it’s actually CHEAPER to book a return flight to Dubai and buy it here locally!

India Today did the math and well this is the result:

The additional cost added to the iPhone price in India is the result of tax and those buying a phone outside the country SHOULD declare it and pay import duty.
