Apple Product Price List Globally

This dataset contained many Apple products ranging from iPhones to iMacs to accessories, however, for simplicity, I chose to focus only on iPhone offerings as the dataset contained over 400 entries. Even more so, I only focused on iPhone 13 models and didn't include every country listed and picked a couple representative countries across geographical location and income group. Specifically, I'll be focusing on the difference between the United States and India in terms of pricing for the iPhone 13 as it is the most expensive option for both countries.

While the price of the iPhone 13 in India is in local currency, Indian rupees, when converted to USD, it comes out to be around 729 USD, which is higher than the US price which is 699 USD. In comparing the same product in two drastically different countries, it's unfortnate the lower income grouped country is forced to pay more for the same product. The clearest example is with Apple's newest annouced iPhone Duo where the price in India already reflects the 18% GST, which isn't seen on the US page. Additionally, iPhones aren't assembled in India. Instead, it comes completely pre-built, and has a full import tax, which is significantly higher than if each individual part has an import tax. The cost is unfortnately reflected onto the consumer in India, so even though they have a lower middle income, if they want an iPhone, they have to pay a substantially higher price.
