The question is why should indian pay 30 to 35 percent more. Still 32 GB iPhone 6s is selling at 700 to 750 $. Even more than iPhone 7.

                      If apple manage to launch its iphones at US prices in India I will be the first in line to buy otherwise It's not worth it to give 30 to 35 percent extra premium over US pricing. Hopefully in future apple will produce iphones in India and sell at reasonable price and then they will definitely seize significant market share.

                          Hundreds of millions of people disagree.

                          "can't even use a standard 2 button mouse that doesn't have the extra forward & back buttons"

                          Never got used to those, currently i have Logitech anywhere MX mouse and it has all the goodies, but i never use those extra buttons.

Apple lovers always harp on about this but the iPhone offers the worst user experience available? One button really its 2017 i can't even use a standard 2 button mouse that doesn't have the extra forward & back buttons. Maybe one day they will realise as they did with the mouse for their computers that one button is just unproductive.

                                Just like everywhere around the world, when people want premium experience most of them buy iPhone, and when people don't have money they have to settle for android

J-Series or A-Series sold in India is not an achievement, because people think these Galaxy Series (J & A) are the "best", when they're the opposite (not worst though).

                                    there's nothing to do about marketing...idiots won;t understand...most people buy phones either at the advise of the retailer or after a discussion with peers...with the premium price for a device that becomes obsolete in 2years people are more interested in devices like oneplus
