Alongside today’s updates, Apple has increased prices for unlocked models of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, as spotted by iPhoneinCanada.ca reader Wils.
Below is the old pricing, followed by the updated pricing next to it and increases in parentheses:
iPhone 6
$749 for 16GB —> $839 (+$90)
$859 for 64GB —> $969 (+$110)
$969 for 128GB —> $1,099 (+$130)
iPhone 6 Plus
$859 for 16GB —> $969 (+$110)
$969 for 64GB —> $1,099 (+$130)
$1079 for 128GB —> $1,229 (+$150) (updated to fix an earlier price error)
Wils notes Canadian carriers have not updated their outright pricing to match Apple as of yet. For example, Fido still shows the iPhone 6 Plus as $859 outright, but of course it’s locked (and you’ll need to pay extra to unlock it).
Clearly, the lower Canadian dollar trading at $0.79 US is not helping the prices here. Earlier today, Apple Watch pricing was revealed, showing roughly a 30% markup compared to the U.S.
