Global Workdays Required to Afford iPhone 16

A new study reveals that people in different countries need to work varying numbers of days to afford the iPhone 16. In Switzerland, it takes 4 days of work, while in India, it takes 47.6 days. The iPhone 16 is now available in India with prices starting at seventy-nine thousand nine hundred rupees.
The new iPhone 16 is now available in India through Apple retail and online stores, including locations such as Apple BKC in Mumbai and Apple Saket in New Delhi.

According to the iPhone Index, a study that calculates the number of workdays required to afford the iPhone 16 Pro (128 GB), significant disparities exist globally.

In Switzerland, individuals need to work only 4 days to purchase the device.

Americans typically work for 5.1 days, while Australians and Singaporeans need 5.7 days.

However, in India, individuals need to work an average of 47.6 days to afford the iPhone 16.

The iPhone 16 pricing in India starts at Rs 79,900, with different models priced higher.

Additionally, the Apple Intelligence feature will be added to the iPhone 16 series next month via a software update.
