Price Prediction for iPhone 15 If It Launches in Indonesia

Jakarta – iPhone 15, the latest smartphone series from Apple, was officially released globally on September 16, 2023, and consists of four variants: the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max.

For the United States market, the iPhone 15 price starts at US$799 (IDR 12.26 million) for the 128GB variant. Meanwhile, the iPhone 15 Plus price starts at US$899 (IDR 13.8 million) for the 128GB variant. 

Then, how about the iPhone 15 price if it launches in Indonesia?

Based on predictions from several sources, the iPhone 15 price in Indonesia is likely to range from IDR 15 million to IDR 25 million, depending on the variant and storage capacity.

The sources state that the iPhone 15 will start to be available in Indonesia this month. Unfortunately, Erafone as a distributor has not provided official information regarding the schedule or price.

Through e-commerce, it's known that several online stores have provided iPhone 15 in Indonesia.

Models that can be purchased aka ready stock are the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, which are the highest types of smartphones made by Cupertino.

The price offered varies, for example, the iPhone 15 Pro is marketed at 26-28 million. Meanwhile, for the top version, the iPhone 15 Pro Max, the price tag reaches IDR 33 million.

For the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, the current status is pre-order. One of the sellers said that the units will be shipped from Singapore within 3-7 days after the buyer makes payment.

The price set for the iPhone 15 pre-order is IDR 21 million, while the iPhone 15 Plus is priced at IDR 23 million.

As information, in the iPhone 15 series, there's one of the biggest expected changes is to the charging port. This is something we’ve known was coming, due to new EU laws around standardization coming into effect in December 2024 that are designed to cut down on electronic waste.

Apple’s lightning port is set to be replaced with a regular USB-C, bringing the iPhone in line with other smartphones.

Regarding the display, the “dynamic island” bezel currently reserved for its larger models is expected to replace the notch on the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus.

Design rarely changes too much from one iPhone to another, but MacRumors reports that Pro models will see an upgrade to titanium frames, slimmer bezels, and some minor changes with more curved device edges, while the Ultra will get periscope lens technology for enhanced camera zoom.

It also suggests that Apple plans to use Qualcomm modem chips for the new devices, as its modem chips that are in development aren’t quite ready.

As for the colors, dark pink and light blue are rumored this time around, along with the standard black, white, and red options.
