With the advent of 5G, manufacturers now have a reason to jack up the price of their phones. The increase in price is not limited to flagship phones but also mid-range phones with 5G support. However, 5G is not the only reason why phones cost more this year.

For example, in India, the GST tax for mobile phones has been increased from 12% to 18% and it has prompted manufacturers to raise the prices of their products sold in the market.

This increase in phone prices has got us curious as to how much our readers spend on a phone and thus serves as the basis for our poll this week – What is the highest amount you are willing to spend on a phone? Do you have a mark you won’t cross or do you go all out when purchasing a phone? Do take the poll below and also share the reason(s) behind your answer.

NB: We have added Indian Rupee options for our Indian readers to make it easy for them to choose an answer. However, these prices are not a direct conversion of the USD options.
