Rumours circulating on Weibo suggest that Apple might increase the prices of its iPhone 17 models as early as Monday, August 10. This potential price hike follows a trend of Apple raising prices on other products earlier in 2026.

• A potential price increase for the iPhone 17 is rumoured for August 10.
• Apple has recently increased prices on Macs, iPads, and other devices due to rising component costs, particularly memory.
• In Kenya, where Apple does not sell directly, local prices are influenced by import costs and reseller margins, with no immediate change expected on Kenyan shelves.
