iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max prices compared across countries

Apple's iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max have launched globally, with Indian prices set at ₹1,64,900 and ₹1,79,900 respectively, prompting many consumers to consider buying from cheaper foreign markets. The price difference is significant, with the US offering the lowest global prices at approximately ₹1,14,000 for the Pro model, followed by Canada, UAE, Japan, and China. Import duties and local taxes in India are the primary reasons for the higher domestic cost. However, buyers should note that US prices exclude local sales tax, US models are e-SIM only with no physical SIM slot, and Apple's warranty coverage is restricted outside the country of purchase.
