Holy hell, the 512GB iPhone XS Max costs $1,449

We knew it wasn’t going to be cheap, but just seeing the number makes me shiver and instinctively hug my wallet.

$1,449. 

One thousand, four hundred and forty-nine dollars. That’s the price for the 512GB variant of the iPhone XS Max. 

The 64GB version isn’t cheap, either: At $1,099 it’s a hundred bucks more than the iPhone X at launch. 

But $450 bucks more for 448GB of additional storage? A dollar per gigabyte? That’s…XS-ive. 

For all the details about the phone, check out our overview here. But the short story is that the iPhone XS Max has pretty much the same specs as the regular iPhone XS, except it’s bigger. 

By the way, the regular iPhone XS with 512GB of storage isn’t cheap either: It costs $1,349. 

I’d make the old joke about selling my kidney for one of these, but if iPhone prices keep rising like this, one kidney soon won’t be enough.
