    this mobile is worth 1000$ if
    1)It turns to full Windows 10 when plugged into MHL adapters
    2)Battery life more than 2 days with heavy use
    3)Have 86x Processor to run 32x windows programs
    4)Looks stylish as iphone 6s space grey
    5)Internal memory 2 TB
    otherwise if you buy this telephone with that price without the characteristics above
    either you are a millionaire and you need to spend money
    or (you know what I mean)

        Also it would hurt their massive profit margin if they didn't hike the price up accordingly. Apple love their profit margin.

            Wonder how much it's really worth... I would say $300 tops.

I'm afraid I can no longer have their phone in the near future. So, in that case I will no longer be their an avid fan. :(

                        OdysseyTag, 09 Feb 2017I'm sure if Apple wanted, they could focus their attention ... more100% agreed. They should make pure titanium options available, priced at 5000 usd and above. Meanwhile, continue to garner volumes from regular models.

                        There are millions of people for whom a 5k USD phone is pocket change..

                          Guess this is due to them improving their screens to the better OLED rather than LCD.

                          Amoled/OLED always cost more to manufacture I guess they want to make as much profit as possible.

                          Then theres Samsung who has Amoled displays and is cheaper than the $1000 iphone 8.

                            Gonna wait for it to come out.Finally i can afford an Iphone 6 plus :D

                              Apples tenth and last so try to get good parts this time

                                AnonD-368020, 09 Feb 2017Nop, one plus 4 all the way in sub 450 dollars.nope, the price of OP4(5) will be 499€ at best.

                                  Anonymous, 09 Feb 2017The cost isn't doubled. What the fuuu. Screens don't cost t... moreits kind of weird, as not long time ago, there were few articles made that smoked displays are now cheaper than LCD ones lol.

                                    hmmm....
                                    one word was on my mind when i was reading that news: "HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA"

                                    Well, I seriously cant get anything better when I read such news....

                                      I'm sure if Apple wanted, they could focus their attention on making a phone for the elite. They are arguably the only company in a position to do so while making an absurd amount of profit. I'm sure celebrities and the likes are waiting to set themselves apart from the average iPhone user (which is quite mainstream at this stage - even in developing nations).

                                        They used to bash oled screen now it is a premium-exclusive features for $1000+ hahaha. Apple is like Communist whose brainwashes their citizens at early age. They obey and worship their leader no matter what.
