Preorder for iPhone 7 anf 7 Plus will start next week but do those about to place an order have an iota of what the price will be? Basing on current users, we suspect there will be large orders and a possible sell-out situation. iPrice conducted a survey across the region to compare the price for the basic iPhone 7 32GB model will cost and derived with scenario customers will be paying for the model.

By averaging the cost offered by merchants in each country in USD, iPrice found that the iPhone 7 would cost cheapest in Singapore ($749) and Malaysia $900 (approximately RM3800) but almost double the initial cost in Indonesia ($1,268) and Thailand ($1,340).

Taking in consideration each countries’ average income (assuming a person will be using 100% of the income to buy an iPhone), it would take a Vietnamese more than 104 days to afford an iPhone 7 and an Indonesian more than 87 days.
