快科技8月24日消息，据马克·古尔曼最新《Power On》通讯爆料，苹果计划上调9月发布的iPhone18系列售价，由于内存、芯片供应紧张推高整机物料成本，涨价基本已成定局。此前两个月苹果已经上调Mac、iPad等非iPhone产品价格，平均涨幅约23%；MacBook Air涨价200美元，Mac Studio涨价500美元，iPad Air上调150美元。         Photo: VCG
Chinese and Thai police have recently busted a transnational credit card fraud ring targeting Chinese citizens, dismantling multiple criminal dens and arresting nine suspects - four Chinese and five Thai nationals.
Under the guidance and coordination of the economic crime investigation bureau of China's Ministry of Public Security (MPS), Shanghai police investigators identified a transnational criminal gang in 2025 engaged in credit card fraud targeting Chinese citizens. Chinese authorities promptly shared details of the case and requested assistance from Thai police, launching international law enforcement cooperation, the People's Daily reported on Thursday.
An investigation found that in 2024, two suspects surnamed Ji and Xiao conspired to carry out the fraud. Ji set up a dried-fruit shop in Thailand as a front, luring victims with discounts for purchases made using UnionPay cards and illegally obtaining their credit card information. 
Xiao then made counterfeit cards and recruited others to use them to conduct fraudulent transactions and profit from the proceeds. So far, investigators have determined that the amount involved in the case exceeds 5 million yuan ($741,445), People's Daily reported. 
In early July this year, China's MPS sent a task force to Thailand to work with Thai police on the case. The two sides conducted a detailed analysis of the criminal group's organizational structure, key members and operational bases, while gaining a comprehensive understanding of its modus operandi and financial flows. 
Recently, police in both countries launched simultaneous operations, carrying out coordinated arrests and evidence collection to crack down on the group across its entire criminal chain, according to People's Daily.
An official from China's MPS said the operation was the first simultaneous joint enforcement action by Chinese and Thai police against economic crime in recent years, delivering a strong deterrent to transnational economic crime. 
Next, both sides will build on the operation's results and seek to establish a regular mechanism for combating cross-border economic crime, with closer law enforcement cooperation on intelligence sharing, joint investigations, fugitive tracking and asset recovery, People's Daily reported.

B | 同时，三星、谷歌新一代手机均已涨价约100美元，苹果将参考竞品的定价策略。

如果苹果跟进100美元涨幅，iPhone18 Pro海外起售价将来到1199美元，涨幅约9%。该涨价幅度相对克制，意味着苹果不会把全部上游成本转嫁给消费者，企业自身将消化一部分压力，苹果此前也预警本季度毛利率承压。

据此前Counterpoint的分析，同样12GB内存+1TB闪存的配置，iPhone 18 Pro Max相较iPhone 17 Pro Max的成本上涨超过300美元。

D | 古尔曼分析，选择100美元的温和涨幅，可以维持iPhone与三星竞品处于相近价格区间，避免重演Mac、iPad大幅涨价带来的负面市场反馈。iPhone用户忠诚度较高，理论上还有进一步提价的空间，苹果的设备分期订阅方案，也能够降低消费者对一次性涨价的感知。
