Apple has made a significant price update to its iCloud+ cloud storage service in Turkey. The fees for the 50 GB, 200 GB, and 2 TB plans have increased by up to 60%. Meanwhile, the 6 TB and 12 TB plans remain unchanged. This price hike is particularly striking for users who rely heavily on digital storage. So, how have the new prices shaped up, and which plan now looks more appealing?
New iCloud+ Prices
According to Apple’s official Turkey page, the updated prices are as follows:
- 50 GB plan: 39.99 TL/month (previously 24.99 TL)
- 200 GB plan: 129.99 TL/month (previously 79.99 TL)
- 2 TB plan: 399.99 TL/month (previously 249.99 TL)
- 6 TB plan: 1,299.99 TL/month (no change)
- 12 TB plan: 2,499.99 TL/month (no change)
The increased prices mainly affect the lower- and mid-tier plans. As a result, the 50 GB plan is now 180 TL more expensive annually, while the 2 TB plan costs users up to 1,800 TL more per year. This change is prompting users to reconsider their digital storage needs.
Which iCloud+ Plan Is More Advantageous?
From a cost-per-GB perspective, the 2 TB plan remains the most advantageous option. At roughly 0.20 TL per GB, it’s a logical choice for heavy cloud storage users. Larger plans, such as the 6 TB and 12 TB tiers, also maintain a similar cost-per-GB balance. In contrast, the 50 GB and 200 GB plans offer relatively weaker value for money.
A New Era for iCloud+ in Turkey
Apple’s price increase seems likely to reshape how Turkish users approach their digital storage choices. While the cost burden rises significantly for smaller plans, the unchanged prices of high-capacity plans help preserve their appeal—especially for professional use or family sharing.
In conclusion, iCloud+ still provides a reliable and advantageous cloud storage solution for users within the Apple ecosystem. However, with the new prices, which plan is more beneficial in the long run will ultimately depend on individual usage habits.
