Report suggests that Apple may introduce the most expensive iPhone 18 Pro in history.

Apple’s fans are accustomed to the brand’s high prices, but the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could raise the bar even further with significantly increased costs due to essential component expenses.

Increased memory prices have directly impacted Apple’s production costs, with the 12 GB of RAM for the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro estimated to cost about US$ 145 to the company.

The change would impact the internal storage as well. The manufacturing cost of the iPhone 18 Pro with 256 GB storage is expected to rise from $582 to $726.

The camera system can impact the worth as well.

Recent reports suggest that the iPhone 18 Pro may introduce a camera system featuring a variable aperture lens, offering enhanced control over light intake and expanding photographic options beyond just higher memory expenses.

This new collection is expected to cost at least 50% more to manufacture than the current option. If this prediction is accurate, experts project that the device could be priced at around US$ 1,399, equivalent to about R$ 7,218 in direct conversion.

Apple has not provided any comments or confirmed any changes to the commercial strategy for the upcoming iPhone generation.
