<p>Analysts are expecting the price people will pay for an iPhone to rise significantly heading into next year. Apple analyst Katy Huberty from Morgan Stanley released a report (via Business Insider (http://uk.businessinsider.com/data-suggests-iphone-8-very-expensive-2017-4?r=US&amp;IR=T)) predicting iPhone ASP to rise to $753 in 2018, up from $695 in the holiday quarter just gone.</p>
<p>Much of this increase is attributed to demand for the upcoming flagship iPhone model with an all-new design, OLED display and (almost) bezel-less front face. This ‘iPhone 8’ is rumored to cost significantly more (https://9to5mac.com/2017/04/18/bloomberg-new-iphone-8-glass-steel-fingerprint-sensor/) than Apple’s current lineup. Huberty also notes that more people are buying the iPhone 7 Plus than ever before, which starts at $769 (http://amzn.to/2otef1n) and is priced at a $120 premium relative to the 4.7-inch iPhones.</p>
