Stretching Your Dollar: Is Upgrading to the iPhone 15 Necessary?
Apple just unveiled the iPhone 15, which slated for a wide release on September 22. Its the 15th model in as many years but is it necessary for consumers to purchase? Jackson Holbrook, UBreakiFix expert, joined 'Stretching Your Dollar' to talk about the phone's latest specs and features and whether consumers should even consider upgrading their iPhones.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
