Apple's upcoming iPhone 17 Pro will have a starting price that is $50 more than the iPhone 16 Pro but it will come with a minimum 256GB

Apple launched the Pro six years ago with the iPhone Pro 11 for $999, but the normal course of inflation and the rising cost of everything else that goes with making things -- components, supply chain costs, labor wages -- means the sub-$1,000 iPhone Pro could be a thing of the past.

Right now, there are strong savings to be had on the iPhone 16 Pro — and these phones won’t be available in a matter of weeks.
