ISLAMABAD: Prices for Apple’s iPhone 15 series have seen a significant increase in Pakistan, reflecting a broader trend of rising smartphone costs. The adjustment comes in response to recent price hikes across various smartphone brands, including Samsung.
Despite the absence of an official Apple store in Pakistan, several authorised dealers offer PTA-approved iPhone 15 models.
According to a leading Pakistani website specialising in these approved devices, the iPhone 15 Pro Max (256 GB) now costs Rs481,500, up from Rs476,500 a week ago. The 512 GB variant has risen to Rs576,000, previously priced at Rs570,000.

The base model, iPhone 15 (128 GB), is now available for Rs327,500, a jump from Rs323,900, while the iPhone 15 (256 GB) is priced at Rs365,500, up from Rs361,500.
It’s noteworthy that most iPhones sold through Pakistani platforms like Mercantile feature one physical SIM and one eSIM, unlike Hong Kong and Chinese models that support dual physical SIMs. Additionally, iPhones from Hong Kong are generally more expensive than those available locally.
The recent surge in smartphone prices has pushed the iPhone 15 series to a price point that may be out of reach for many average consumers.
