Apple launched the iPhone 15 Series on 12th September 2023. The iPhone 15 Series includes 4 models- iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. While the iPhone 15 series is already up for pre-order around the world, its prices are something that is getting the most attention at the moment. Like every year, the iPhone 15 Series is more expensive in India than in many other markets. Although Apple has not increased the prices of iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, but the Pro models have seen a considerable hike.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is the 100 USD dearer in the US and Rs. 20,000 expensive here in India. This makes the consumers think about buying an iPhone from other countries so that they get a better deal. To facilitate this decision-making, here are the prices of the iPhone 15 Series in various countries.
iPhone 15 & iPhone 15 Plus

There is a difference in prices because of the difference in taxation. Considering the table above, it is clear that the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are the cheapest in the home country USA. The difference in price is almost Rs. 14,000 so it would not hurt to get your iPhone from the USA instead of buying it in India. However, that will work only if you are using eSIM as US models don’t have a physical SIM card slot.
