It is the market, friend: who has a very precious good, can put the price as it can because people will continue to pay for him.
It does not matter if it is electricity or semiconductors that are needed to manufacture iPhones, thus the system works in which we live.
That is the reason why the iPhone 13, according to the latest filtrations, will be more expensive than its predecessor.
It is not for the technology that wearing inside, but because the Chinese company that makes semiconductors and other iPhone components has decided to upload prices up to 20% above what it came to be charged so far.
And Apple will not assume the surchate: it will be charged to its users.
According to filtered reports, TSMC, which is the Chinese company that rides the iPhone, has notified its customers from the increase, which will take place from January 2022, just when the iPhone 13 takes just four months in the market.
The increase for Apple, which is from the main clients of the company, will be around 5%.
Given the increase of only 5%, compared to 20% that could have been, many analysts have pointed out that Apple could assume the costume to keep the iPhone at the same price.
But it will not be the case.
The same reports on the increase in the price of the chips involve that most manufacturers will charge users, explicitly citing Apple as one of them.
None of this removes that the iPhone 13 is going to be a phone that surprises users or disappointments.
At the moment, we know that you will bet a lot about the quality of your cameras.
They are already from the best in the market with the iPhone 12 and do not seem to want to lose that rating with the following model.
They will make four variants of the iPhone 13: a small, another standard size, this same standard size but with more advanced features and, finally, the gigantic screen version.
The differences between each other will not know them until the official presentation, that everything at the end of September.
