The iPhone X is expensive in Spain, but more in other countries

Once seen, officially presented and verified that the new iPhone X "have" not "x", is the Apple smartphone to buy we come face to face with the harsh reality, its price. Obviously it is an issue that always appears once any device is presented and that is that the purchase options of a product in addition to its features, design, colors and others, is governed by the price it has.

Many users are thinking that those 999 dollars that the iPhone X costs in the United States is a bargain compared to what it costs in Spain, which would be about 839 euros at direct exchange in euros, but this is not so at all and it is that in the American web is missing to add the taxes of each state. On the other hand in other countries the iPhone X is more expensive than in Spain and why does this happen?

First of all clarify that it is not about justifying the price of the iPhone X or any device that Apple sells, everyone is free to buy or not buy these products and we should not take it as an attack / offense, rather we have to think that this device is not made for us and nothing else ... Today we have countless products that are expensive and we do not have to justify, buy or attack them.

Once this is clarified, we echo what can be read on social networks and what spends every year with new Apple products: «With what the iPhone X costs in Spain, I'm going on a trip to the US and buy it there» «I also have 2 euros left over for the Starbucks coffee» The answer to this is no, you won't have any money left over and it won't come out either As cheap as you think buying the iPhone, MacBook or Apple device in the United States, since in addition to taxes you have to add the trip, the ESTA, accommodation, food, taxes, etc ... Logically if you can buy the iPhone, Mac or whatever it is in the US, great, but it won't be cheaper to go there to buy it expressly.

Price of iPhone X in other countries

But where we are going, the iPhone X is expensive in Spain but it is not the country where the new Apple terminal is sold more expensively. A country that we have close to ours has the most expensive prices that we have seen so far, we are talking about Italy. In this country the price increases a little compared to the price in Spain if we convert it to dollars with the current dollar / euro exchange rate.

• In Italy a 64 GB iPhone X costs 1.416 dollars (1.189 euros)
• In Spain a 64 GB iPhone X costs 1.379 dollars (1.159 euros)
• In Poland a 64GB iPhone X costs $ 1.385
• In Russia a 64GB iPhone X costs $ 1.380
• In the United Kingdom a 64GB iPhone X costs $ 1.319 (£ 999)
• In Canada a 64GB iPhone X costs 1.082 US dollars (with change)

The differences are not spectacular either, but they do exist and we have not commented on the prices in Mexico (1.542 dollars), close to 1.500 euros in Turkey, Brazil and others.. Actually all this is mainly due to the taxes of each country and we cannot say that Apple discriminates between countries since it is not that, but many factors must be taken into account before launching and talking about prices. Then each one decides if they will buy it or not, if they can and really want, but this is another matter.
