"We always try to keep our prices as low as possible," says Apple CEO Tim Cook

02 October 2019
Cook also addressed competition of TV+ with Netflix, accusations of monopoly of the App Store and more.

Sort by:

He should be called a Tim Crook from now on. Charging people 2.5x more than something does cost to be made certainly is caring for their well being.

    is he high or something ? their prices are far from low
    just because they are selling the iphone 11 for lower price than the xr was doesn't make it cheap
    i can already hear the apple sheeps clapping for what he said

      "as low as possible?" BS, especially when one of your phones only come with 64 gigs of storage yet cost $1400. I don't think iPhones are that bad personally, but inflating the cost to make a phone by over 3 times ≠ making the price as low as possible.

        fapple.inc, 02 Oct 2019"We always try to keep our prices as low as possible," lol ... moreThe iPhone 11 is definitely an upgrade over the XR, and cost less and people still complain?
        LOLOLOL y'all funny as f*ck.

              Anonymous, 02 Oct 2019iphone 11 pro max cost €1265 in europe and that's the 64gb.... moreThe Galaxy Note 10+ is 1109,95 euros where I live and 1159,95 euros.
              Who cares if it's double the minimum wage, stop blaming Apple or other brands, for being broke.
              They aren't going to sell you these smartphones for 200 euros, c'mon.

                    Cook actually didnt say anything wrong. He said that they try to keep the prices as low as possible. But the prices are for the components they set in there phones and all the cost to make the devices they do. So he didnt say nothing wrong :D

                      Is Tim Cook in stand up comedy, now?

                        lol

                          iOS is monopolized, but that argument only holds the slightest weight in the USA. On a global level iOS is more of a niche product with Android being over 80% of the market. That's a bit of a weird scenario trying to force Apple to license iOS. Even if they did, they would pick the players and this would likely result in prices staying high anyway. Imagine Samsung and Sony licensed iPhones. They ain't gonna be cheap.

                                    Doesn't sound like something Steve Jobs(marketing extraordinaire) would say, one of many signs Apple is drowning. Takes a dummy to believe that statement, XR to 11 (with a $50 reduction = "always as low as possible")
                                    Clearly Apple couldn't maintain its market share and resorts to price reduction, hoping charges on its services would make up for it in future
