Apple keeps getting greedier . It is only phone manufacturers that keep increasing prices with marginal improvements in tech while other manufacturers are reducing prices as tech gets better.

iOS Never Again, 14 Oct 2020Good job comparing iPhone 12 to mid range garbage Pixel 5.

You know that you have an account here just because your android-loving and apple-trashing comments have nowhere to go?

Almost a thousand for that little phone with no accessories does raise eyebrows for sure, even if there's nothing shady going with it. Thank you for the explanations, not all guys here are that calm and polite as you are lol, so I appreciate that

Import and export levies vary by country, and by country-to-country relationship. Internally, countries have VAT, sales tax and even regional or city taxes which all impact the price of the device."
There you have it. Again nothing shady. Same when Apple can suddenly lower iPhone price or make it higher in some country during a year.

I don't think its all because the taxes

On the surface, yes - but once you take taxes and shipping into account the savings are likely to disappear.”

I don't understand why this company is so shady with their pricing

That's the most ridiculous reason to buy an iPhone lol 'value for money', like its such amazing value at almost a thousand for that 64 GB little phone which comes even without charger and earphones. You really have a little idea on what are you talking about, iPhones aren't by a mile about value or have ever been about value

The prices always been much higher? It haven’t stopped them selling and it won’t do it now either, I live in EU and 12 mini cost 829e here. But still iPhone 12 going to be the best seller with 929e price tag. We are currently buying more expensive phones than ever before, people want value for their money so that’s why iPhones been in very big demand.

To add to it, in this region there's no 5G yet so it makes for an even more overpriced device, but not a bad phone at all, just not well priced by Apple, considering Samsung prices their flagships exactly or very similarly around the world and the variation is small, by the regions, the Fold 2 for example is $2000 here just like in US, but the top end iPhone 12 Pro Max on the other hand, is actually just as much here, which is once again, overpriced, not to mention the Fold 2 comes with accessories and even a case

samsung user, 14 Oct 2020I find it funny how apple use the side fingerprint hahahahh... moreikr... my sony xperia z5 premium from 2015 already have this... they just cant function there in us due to legal issues imposed by apple, and now they are using it...
but, honestly, this generation of iphone is good... design wise, if the corners get a less curvier, i think it would be better... and the notch, it disrupts the viewing experience based on the video on unveiling... if only they can hide it with black bars only when a video is playing... but whatever, i already got my 1ii
