iPhone 17 series to cost more, except the vanilla iPhone 17

Despite Trump's tariffs on non-US-made goods, Apple was able to delay the inevitable price hikes on its products, leaving the iPhone 16 family phones at their original prices. However, that's about to change with the iPhone 17. A market analyst predicts that Apple will raise its prices by $50 in the US on almost all models. This means that the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max will ask $1,049 and $1,249, respectively. Since the rumored iPhone 17 Slim doesn't have an equivalent in the current iPhone 16 lineup, it's hard to tell what the pricing will be, but the general sentiment is that...

Gone are the days when OnePlus was a budget brand – but these days even its budget product line is seen as too expensive. That or it’s not competitive in the current mid-range market.
