both ios and android developer are smart, we the user are stupid, because when any device new release they super good then after the update they give which is actually a trick by them to slowing down your devices until the end they release new model which you very exciting about, by the fact we getting older and getting more stupid

Relax android lovers no need to be concerned as u won't be purchasing apple products so it doesn't affect you.
Just to put it into perspective :
Last year's iphone x cost to manufacture £269
Samsung s9 plus £276
The note 9 would cost more to manufacture than the s9.
So samsung and apple costs to manufacture is similar and priced similar.
There's a reason samsung prices aren't mentioned in article. Probably just to hate more on Apple or most likely Bcuz apple is most portable.
Just sit back and enjoy the rest of your days in a positive way.

Apple says android is vulnerable, slow,lags,cheap,copies them and iFans go fierce while reciting these decade old fun facts learned by heart!
Do yourself a favour, next time try a droid flagship for real(checking it out at the store doesn't count) before you go preach these looney tunes(should be synonym for iTunes) iCrap coz you lower the IQ of the entire comments section evertym you post!

May you wake up from a deep sleep that their products don't get our money's worth.
iPhones could become the best among the smartphones if only they bring the price lower or at least comparable to Samsung's, LG's, Sony's, and some other Chinese makers'.

Anonymous, 26 Sep 2018We are in 2018 and you in 2013 maanAndroid still does lag. And even on Google Playstore you have apps which are malware which is ridiculous.
And even Google tracks you and has a record of your locations no matter if you did or did not consent to it in settings. Everything you do on your phone is being recorded. And Google does make money on your data. Same like Facebook.

No wonder they're reporting record profits all the time. People really need to stop buying these phones and encouraging the annual inflation of not only iPhone prices, but phone prices in general.

Why settle for mediocre? Device which you use hours every day, why don't then invest to something good?
No they just doesn't want Android, they want iOS, also If they want decent they can for example buy iPhone 7, no need to buy Android.

androfox, 26 Sep 2018443$ phone + 557$ advertisement per phone + 248$ profit + 1... moreFirst Apple is a news generator so events such as the latest phone release are reported by major news outlets
Second as I understand it Apple guards its image strictly, so it generates adverts which the network uses . Apple does fo adverts, but the vast number are done by networks, Apple being the supplier of all images
There are some very good analysts out there who have shown that Apple can and have exceeded a 60% gross mark up in earlier years..
I was about to post a link but decided not to, all you have to do is Google Apple gross market mark up
$1000 selling price means. $557 gross profit i.e 55.7% i.e doubling the cost of phone uniit cost
One of the many problems I have is Apple have clearly benefited from the improvements in the 7nm Apple Bionic SoC
This improvements rather than being maximised Apple have reduced the battery

It is experience that you pay. No apps crashing, broken features, malware, lag and other stuff that will regulary happen on any Android phone.
You get smooth experience, updates on time, and 5 years of software support. Plus, you can't get a virus.

To be honest, nearly 1,500 dollar for a phone with apple logo on its back. You can have two or three very decent android with that money. But you know, some people just want to buy logo instead of phones, so if anyone is satisfied with the logo, then let them buy it. Some people adoring tech, specs and so forth, and some people just want the logo, because the logo give them pleasure and sensation.
