The Cupertino-based tech giant, Apple, is expected to unveil its best flagship ever made today. The company announced the launch event for the iPhone 16 series over a week ago, and the launch day is finally here.
Considering leaks from multiple insiders and reliable sources, the exciting features of the iPhone 16 series will be the larger display, the new capture button, and AI integration.
Apple has maintained the same screen size since November 2020, when it introduced the iPhone 12.
Not only will the Pro models get bigger screens, but the base model, the iPhone 16 is also expected to feature a bigger screen than the iPhone 15.
Moreover, the new capture button, as per the latest reports, is also likely to be seen in all iPhone models, including the standard iPhone 16 variant.
The launch event will take place today, and it will be streamed on Apple’s official website and YouTube channel at 10 PM (Pakistan time).
Even though it will be a super-expensive smartphone, especially for Pakistan, there is a lot of talk and anticipation for the iPhone 16 in Pakistan.
It is worth mentioning that last year when the iPhone 15 Pro Max was introduced, it was priced as high as Rs900,000 and was sold in the black market during the initial days.
As of now, the top model of the iPhone 15 Pro Max is still selling for as high as Rs700,000 (including PTA approval charges).
Considering this price, we can expect the iPhone 16 Pro Max to be priced as high as Rs1 million including PTA tax, as there is no official Apple store in Pakistan, and those who import it are likely to sell it at their ‘own’ price.
At this point, it is unknown and not officially announced what the price of the iPhone 16 will be.
Speaking to a mobile seller in Singapore Plaza, Rawalpindi, it was revealed that once iPhone 16 models are imported by shop owners in Pakistan, interested customers who want to get it earlier or right after launch will not hesitate to pay as much as Rs1 million.
He said they already have ‘many’ customers from twin cities who have asked to pre-book their iPhone 16 Pro Max and are willing to pay this price if they get it in the first week of launch.
