iPhone 18 Pro and foldable iPhone Ultra prices leak ahead of launch
Updated on

Summary Rumors about the iPhone Ultra put its price anywhere between $2,000 and $2,500 in the US.

(Web Desk) - With less than a week left until the launch of the iPhone 18 Pro and the foldable iPhone Ultra, their price is among the few things that remain largely unknown. After various estimations, forecasts, and wild suggestions, we may have gotten the first leaks, which are not all bad news.

iPhone Ultra’s price leaks from multiple sources

Rumors about the iPhone Ultra put its price anywhere between $2,000 and $2,500 in the US. A few recent leaks from across the globe may have revealed its price in other markets, but they strongly suggest the final tag stateside could be much closer to the lower end of this spectrum.

The first leak comes from Vodafone Egypt, which briefly listed the iPhone Ultra with a starting price of 155,750 Egyptian pounds. While this converts to a little over $3,000, it allows a much more relevant comparison with the iPhone 17 Pro, which is currently listed for 88,799 Egyptian pounds. This means the foldable may be about 75% more expensive than the 17 Pro.

Another leak, also attributed to Vodafone but in Australia, and shared by @ev_downunder on X, claims the iPhone Ultra will start at 3,699 Australian dollars (about 2,666 USD). Again, the direct conversion is less relevant than the comparison with the iPhone 17 Pro, which starts at 1,999 Australian dollars. In this case, the iPhone Ultra appears 85% more expensive than last year’s model.

If the iPhone Ultra is about 80% more expensive than the iPhone 17 Pro, then its price in the US may be $1,999. However, Taiwanese research firm TrendForce released an estimate today, which puts the minimum price of the foldable at $2,099, which would be 91% higher than last year’s flagship.
