You paying same price for Milk, Eggs and Meat every year? so you brought up the material cost... do you know how much it cost to make one phone and what are there margins ?

Same like Tesla, they can't give up margins YoY by growing material costs, so they need to do what they need to do. I hope you know what you are arguing about.

I hope you know what you are arguing about. let cut the thread here your comparing iphone to tesla... where innovation halted or copying started a decade ago vs a company lives and breaths on innovation ... unlike tesla as soon as they find cheaper method to build car they pass on to the consumer unlike apple rising freaking phone price from 699 to 1099.. I am not arguing about nothing ... materials get cheaper and cheaper year yoy and unless you bring up drastically new technology... that was seriously laughable comparison you brought up .... you have market share dosent mean you can price tag your products ridiculously...if google and samsung had done it why apple special in price gauging there products ? FYI I been using Iphone since Iphone 4 and macs every new model I been buying.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spend Billions in R&B and pours few more Billions to run services without eating too much of your privacy. So you cannot tell i just pay for the parts. For Model X I can tell the same, why would someone pay 100k+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too agree to your point of shipping just the phone and cable since most of the apple users don't open it anyway that's fine. but if someone wants to buy phone specially Indian middle class consumer if apple is eyeing to penetrate they will not buy since its priced cheaper, now you may argue, apple is only for premium users but don't you think that space is limited. may be a rich guy like you or ppl with disposable income can change the phones every year but there is no reason to change the phones as most of the consumers who buy (~80% of them) don't use the slighter changes that today's iphone version has to offer. Apple guys expect their consumers to update their phones every year, and not giving a charger brick and earpods citing environmental reasons is utter bullshiat; the amount of rare earths goes into the phone.
