Brexit Makes iPhone 7 More Expensive In Britain

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Not even the iPhone can escape the reach of the Brexit.

Apple unveiled the iPhone 7 on Wednesday and it's costing Britons more to buy the device.

Because of the hit the British pound took after Britain voted to authorize a split from the European Union, iPhone 7 will start out at £599. The iPhone 6 and 6S both launched at £539.
