It is fascinating to witness the kind of prices Apple has been charging its customers for its high-end iPhone
In a rather hilarious turn of events, the latest Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max 2TB ends up costing more than a Royal Enfield Classic 350. Let that sink in for a second! We know that each year, Apple brings new products to the market. The launch event announces how these are so much better than last year’s devices. These include iPhone, AirPods, Watch, etc. This time around, the range of iPhones includes a base model, Air, Pro and Pro Max. Let us glance at the details of this case.
iPhone 17 Pro Max Costs More Than Royal Enfield Classic 350
Now, the new iPhone 17 range in India starts at Rs 82,900. However, the top-of-the-line iPhone 17 Pro Max 2TB costs a jaw-dropping Rs 2,29,900. That is insane for a smartphone. In comparison, the Royal Enfield Classic 350 bears an ex-showroom price of Rs 1,97,253. Even if we calculate the on-road price in Delhi, it comes out to be Rs 2,24,478, which is less than the iPhone. This really puts things into perspective. That is the case each year with Apple products. They set new benchmarks in terms of capabilities, technology, and even price.
Royal Enfield Classic 350 is one of the most iconic motorcycles in the country. It has been in high demand for decades now. Any bike enthusiast would’ve, at some point in their lives, dreamt of owning this model. That is the reason why, despite so much competition in the market, the Classic 350 continues to dominate and sell like hotcakes. To Royal Enfield’s credit, it has tried to update it reasonably to ensure that it stays relevant in modern times.
My View
A case like this reminds us that we live in an age of technology. Electronic gadgets have taken over the world in the last few years. They continue to get more and more expensive day by day. Companies have been working relentlessly to keep improving the tech each year. Hence, we see that the prices of some electronics have reached unprecedented levels. Smartphones are arguably the most important tool for humans today, regardless of where you live. No wonder the high-end phones now cost this much!
