What Is the iPhone Subscription System?

Our lives changed considerably with the emergence of the coronavirus and the outbreak of the pandemic. The chip shortage that began during the pandemic caused price increases across all tech devices, smartphones especially. Building on this, Apple will offer a rental system for people who can't afford to buy an iPhone.

How Much Will the iPhone Subscription System Cost?

Again according to claims put forward by Bloomberg, the rental costs for the newest and most popular iPhone models will be as follows:

iPhone 13: $35 per month (approximately 514 Turkish Lira)
iPhone 13 Pro: $45 per month (approximately 660 Turkish Lira)
iPhone 13 Pro Max: $50 per month (approximately 734 Turkish Lira)

The Apple subscription service will also include plans like Apple One and AppleCare technical support. Additionally, it's still unclear which countries the subscription system will be available in and when. The iPhone subscription service resembles the device upgrade program used in the US. Through this program, instead of paying upfront or putting a lump sum on a credit card in installments, you agree with the company and pay a fixed monthly fee to own an iPhone using the device you want.
