We already know that terminals iPhone 6 e 6 iPhone Plus They will not arrive in Spain in the first stage of their launch, but they will do so in the second. In fact, both will go on sale in our country on Friday September 26 at a price that starts at 699 euros for the iPhone 6, and 799 euros for the iPhone 6 Plus. But since the price of the iPhone is determined based on the taxes paid for gadgets in each country and this literally changes the cost from one place to another, we want to analyze what are the iPhone 6 prices in other European countries.
Actually with this data in hand, we could deduce if it would be worth taking a trip, or taking advantage of the holidays to save a few euros when thinking about acquiring one of Apple's new mobiles, and even take advantage of this situation to have it before opens in Spain. But I do not bring very good news to the most traveling readers, since the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus they are not cheaper in the rest of Europe.
In Italy, to start with one of those countries with which we should share a price due to similar taxes, the iPhone 6 base costs € 729, while the iPhone 6 Plus goes up to € 829. In the case of Germany, we see how its lower VAT does not make it fall compared to the Spanish price, and it has exactly the same rates as in Spain; € 699 for the iPhone 6, and € 799 for the iPhone 6 Plus. But there is more, in the case of France, the smallest device costs 709 euros, 100 less than the largest.
And although it seems like a utopia, on the other hand, the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus terminal will cost less in Switzerland. There, for the difference between franc and euro, you can buy an iPhone 6 for 627 euros, and an iPhone 6 Plus for the equivalent of about 100 euros more. ¿What do you think of the prices of the iPhone 6 in Europe?
You could do the same but buying it in the USA, with taxes already included and if it is worth it or not, thank you.
Improving the headline: the iPhone 6 costs 10 euros more in France and 72 euros less in Switzerland. And if the final comparison with the USA, it would not be bad, for example, at the current exchange rate of 1.34 and with NY taxes, which is where most people go.
You would have to add customs. It is true that most people pass without having their iPhone (and iPads and computers) stopped at Customs, but since you are one of the few who stop… get ready to add the Spanish VAT and something else.
It is a risk that should be considered so that the comparison is totally real.
And in the Canary Islands it costs the same as in the peninsula having a 7% IGIC tax and without having VAT
Emilio, the current euro-dollar exchange rate is 1.29 and going down… The bargain we had is over… 😉 I will buy the iPhone 6 plus of 128 gb that when I spend it is no longer 100 xD. Greetings
We are losing the north !!! 800 euros for a mobile ??? Not crazy, let's go and see that I like iPhones but I don't pay 800 bucks for a cell phone or drunk.
I live in Mexico and next month I travel to Spain. I was thinking of buying the iPhone there, taking advantage of the fact that when I left Spain, my taxes were returned. And you know what? It is still cheaper to buy it in Mexico paying 16% VAT than to buy it in Spain without VAT. How bad they treat you with the exchange rate.
Excessive. Among my circle of friends, we say that it costs like a computer, and many of them believe that it is comparable, but that statement is obscene, it would take several iPhones to match the processing speed of the simpler Mac Air.
If my operator leaves it to me at € 400-500 paying in "comfortable" installments, I will change my mobile, otherwise I forget until 6s, it's that simple.
Soon, the government will give subsidies for us to change mobile phones and cars, hahahaha

(Sorry for the fouls.)
What do we think? That the minimum interprofessional salary in Germany, for example, is double that in Spain, therefore the cost of an iPhone 6 in Spain is 110% of the SMI and in Germany 50%. Who is it cheaper for?
I live in Argentina, here you cannot OFFICIALLY or LEGAL buy an iPhone since they do not meet the conditions imposed by the government to import such devices.
You can get it in online stores for buying and selling, where they cost AR $ 21.999, which would be US $ 2.618 in exchange.

So I will wait for the holidays, because it is cheaper for me to buy it in Spain with all its taxes! …. Hahaha
»What madness», »nor drunk«, € 800 for a phone, nor crazy. » ………. Let's see ……… Apple has gone to your homes, put a gun to your head and forced you to buy it?
It is clear that these Smartphones are made for people of »pasta«, for people who are up to date with technology, and for those who want to hesitate and leave what is left of savings to buy one ……….
Remember …… .nadie.forces you to buy one …… ..and I imagine that whoever has the money to do so should buy it and enjoy it (MORE THAN ONE OF US WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT). But the world does not end here, nor does it end ……… this year instead of the money you spend on summer vacations …… .you save it and buy one. But envy is very bad ……… example: we see a man in a Mercedaco and he comes out ready: »you don't have to spend that gasoline and pay € 1.500 for insurance». Don't tell me …… ..that you wouldn't like to have one …… .. let's go …… .I'm glad that you have the illusion of buying one and can afford it, or that you have saved for a whole year to have it:… ……..AMEN.
Counting the miserable minimum wage that we have in Spain, where only in France for example, the minimum wage is € 1.200, because in Europe it is expensive but in Spain it is a robbery.
Having seen the comments, I say… .. why aren't we a little more realistic in the comparisons? How nice to say that if the minimum wage in Germany is double that in Spain, to begin with that is a lie and to continue let's talk about the cost of living in Germany, a coffee 2,70 I take them here for 1,20, a cocola 4 euros, I take it here for 1,50, an hour of parking in the blue zone 3,80, I park here for 1,10, where am I most screwed? in Spain if I win 800 or in Germany if I win 1600, because the prices are much more than double those of here, therefore…. the iphone may be cheaper, but the rest of things are immensely more expensive
Texuas, what you say is true, but people are more worried about having an iPhone 6 than having a coffee, which means that if the iPhone is cheaper, it is more important that the coffee costs 4 euros.
You have to be logical, what is not normal is that a telephone is worth the same as a computer, we live in a world of consumerism, there is the problem.
I have always been using everything from Apple, but today in Apple phones it has lost ground, in computers and tablets, they are still one step ahead of the others, but in phones they have lost the grip.
We are in a moment of enormous crisis, in which people find it difficult to reach the end of the month, it costs them to earn 800 euros per month, but all those people buy an iPhone 6.
As an iOS system I do not change it for the android, but if to say that in the phone the xperia z2 has nothing to envy the iphone 6 plus and not counting that in 1 month both samsung and sony will launch their new top-of-the-range terminals for no more than 700 euros.
We must also remember that it does not have 4k recording, and the iPhone 6 of 4,7 does not have a full hd screen, nor is it submersible in water and that the camera is only an improvement from the 5s.
Steven jobs is no longer here and it is unethical to name him, but we must remember that thanks to him the company has reached where it has come. You just have to see, that when he was fired from Apple, he almost ceased to exist if it did not come to be because he returned
