When you hear the name of the iPhone Smartphone, most people will certainly stick to the expensive price. This is indeed the case, where for the latest Smartphone Apple is now selling it at a price of tens of millions of rupiah for the cheapest model, the iPhone XR. As for the iPhone XS Max the price is above Rp. 20 million.
But not long ago someone revealed the cheap iPhone, and it was mentioned that the price offered by Apple for the latest smartphone was only around Rp. 7 million. If this is the case, of course this will not be much different from the Galaxy A80 which is priced at Rp.
But as reported by The Sun, the iPhone with prices below Rp 10 million will only be launched in 2020. And this prediction came from a well-known analyst, Dan Ives from Wedbush Securities.
Not just him, but one other expert named Paolo Pescatore from PP Foresight has revealed that the iPhone price cuts have been carried out with the aim of maintaining the loyalty of iPhone Smartphone lovers while waiting for the presence of the inaugural 5G Cellphone from Apple.
However, there are also those who deny the allegations. Like Ben Wood from CCS Insight, for example, where he argues that Apple is no use releasing iPhone smartphones at a lower price, and the company will also not benefit from the release of these cheap phones.
"Rumors have consistently surfaced that Apple will later offer the iPhone at a lower cost, but this is off the mark. Although not offering a cheap iPhone could result in Apple losing the potential for market share in terms of volume, margins on low-cost devices are no more attractive compared to other flagship products, "he said.
