October 2023 rates for Pakistan’s iPhone 15 series without PTA
Outstanding performance and cutting-edge camera technologies are promised by this series.
However, given the premium price range, the overall characteristics might not be all that exciting.
Consumers are raising questions about the eye-watering prices of this series, which are made even more exorbitant by the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) tax, despite the fact that it promises superior performance and cutting-edge camera technology.
An Overview of the New iPhone 15 Lineup
The iPhone 15 series comes in a variety of configurations to suit different tastes and price ranges.
The available models are listed below, along with their non-PTA costs:

The implementation of PTA tax, which dramatically raises the price of these high-end gadgets, dampens the excitement surrounding the iPhone 15 series.
