Buying advice for Algeria
Both Apple iPhone 18 Pro and Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.
Apple iPhone 18 Pro is 13% cheaper at 385,000 DZD versus 440,000 DZD for the Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max, leaving room for accessories or a longer screen-protection plan.
Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max packs a 5391 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.
Above 100,000 DZD you are paying for the chipset, camera tuning, and long-term software support, so weigh those against price.
