We know iPhones are expensive, (seriously guys, the kidney jokes aren't funny anymore) but we also know that for people who've invested in the Apple ecosystem, stepping out of it isn't as easy.
And while this year's iPhone 11 is comparatively cheaper, the iPhone 11 Pros are still as expensive as last years.?

India
According to a report by Statista, India is one of the three countries where iPhones are the most expensive. While iPhone 11 starts at Rs 64,900, which is around $905 ($146/ Rs 11,000 more expensive) the iPhone 11 Pro's start at Rs 99,999, which is around $1393 ($309/ Rs 22,000 more expensive). Now that's really a lot!
Russia
In Russia, the starter iPhone 11 is the most expensive across the world, starting at RUB 59,990 which is around Rs 66,500. However, the iPhone 11 Pros are slightly less expensive than India, starting at RUB 59,990, which is around Rs 97,000.?
United Kingdom
The third country on the list with the most expensive iPhone 11's is the United Kingdom. iPhone 11 here starts at 749 pounds or Rs 64, 224. The iPhone 11 Pros, on the other hand, start at 1099 pounds or Rs 96,793.
The only way you'd get the iPhone 11 a whole lot cheaper than the Indian pricing is if you were to ask someone to get it for you from the United States. But did you know, the US isn't the only country where you can get the iPhone's the cheapest?
There are other countries too that don't charge a bomb of taxes and getting an iPhone from there could easily help you save around Rs 10,000, even more! (you could buy a standard pair of AirPods to go along with that, for that price).?
