How to save on iPhone 15? Given the rather high price, here is a practical guide to buy it at lower prices.
The new iPhone has now been presented to the world. But how can you save on the purchase of the latest Apple smartphone?
During the event that took place on September 12th in Cupertino, Apple finally unveiled the new iPhone 15. The smartphone comes in four different versions: standard, Plus, Pro, and Pro Max.
Depending on the model, the price of the iPhone 15 varies considerably: the cheapest - the standard 128 GB version - starts from 799 dollars, while the top of the range - the Pro Max 1Tb - costs a whopping 1,599 dollars.
With the costs made known, many potential buyers are now wondering how to save on the purchase of the iPhone 15. Because yes, it is possible to pay less, and now we will explain how to do it.
1) How to save on iPhone 15 with Apple Trade In
The first way to save on the new iPhone 15 is to take advantage of one of the services offered by the Cupertino company: it is Apple Trade In, which allows you to receive a free evaluation of your iPhone to give it possibly in exchange and save on a new one.
The service can be really convenient, especially if you have Apple smartphones that you no longer use, but which are not excessively obsolete. By trading in an iPhone 14, for example, it is possible to save up to 430 euro on the purchase of the new smartphone, while with an 14 Pro Max this figure rises to 650 dollars.
Obviously, the rating of your old iPhone varies greatly not only based on the model but also based on the memory and the conditions in which it is found. However, it is worth noting how Apple’s used valuations are lower than the possible profit generated through private sales.
2) How to save on iPhone 15 with a refurbished version
Another way to save on the new iPhone 15 is to wait until the refurbished versions arrive on the market. Simply put, refurbished iPhones are used smartphones that have been restored to mint or near-mint condition by expert technicians.
When these are put back on the market their price is lower than that of a new product, however, their conditions are completely the same (or almost).
Of course, this solution is not suitable for people who are in a hurry, but if you have patience, in a few months you will certainly have the chance to see the first models on the market.
3) How to save on iPhone 15 with your phone operator
To save on the new iPhone 15, a good idea could be to get it with a subscription to a telephone provider.
In fact, every year the main providers of this type of service make new smartphones available. They can be obtained together with a normal subscription including calls, messages, and internet access.
This choice can be convenient mainly for two reasons: first of all the payment takes place in installments, so the customer does not have to pay for the expense in one go. Furthermore, getting a smartphone together with the telephone operator’s promotion is considered economically convenient compared to buying the product individually and subsequently signing up for a subscription. Of course, this is not always true and does not apply to every smartphone.
Every country usually has different phone operators, therefore you should check with yours to see if a similar offer is available.
4) How to save on iPhone 15 by buying it abroad
Many people interested in the new iPhone 15 will be wondering whether or not it is worth buying it abroad to save. The answer, at least to a non-expert glance, might seem affirmative, however, taking into consideration all the factors involved, we realize that no, it is not worth it.
According to the Apple website, a 256 GB iPhone 15 Pro Max in the United States - one of the countries where the price of the smartphone is lowest - starts at a price of $799, while for example in Mexico it starts at $939.
5) Just wait
Finally, to save on the purchase of the iPhone 15, you simply need to wait. Every year, especially during the release period, the prices of these smartphones are very high indeed. As the months pass, however, their price tends to drop, albeit not significantly.
The best advice to give to those who don’t urgently need to change their smartphone but still want to switch to this new model is to wait a few months, wait for the hype to pass, and then buy the new iPhone.
