However, note that these are speculated prices as Apple has not announced anything about the smartphones yet. It is also possible that only the iPhone 15 Pro Max will get a price hike and that is because of the much-speculated telephoto lens with periscope technology.

The iPhone 15 series is expected to bring new designs, features and specs. However, whether the plain vanilla iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus will get a price hike is not known yet.

Considering that Apple is facing slowing sales of iPhone 14 series, chances are that a price hike for these 2 phones may not happen. Also, these 2 iPhones are expected to get some quite notable upgrades. So, stay tuned, as the launch date gets near.
