          People keep talking about the taxes... Economists have proved that the profit margin in the Brazilian industry is twice or triple than the practiced worldwide. In the last January, Asus tried to launch here the Nexus 7, avaiable on pre-sale in stores for R$ 1300, about USD 650... The launch was aborted by bad reception on the market and the specialized media. We are stolen by the companys, thats the true!
          iPad 16gb 4G: USD 1050
          iPhone 5 16gb: USD 1350
          Galaxy S4 (pré-sale): USD 1250
          Chevrolet Camaro: USD 101500, no, its not wrong,100k!

              Sad but true Brazilian know it's ridiculously expensive but will buy anyways, brazilian believe high prices = status. It's the same for cars and all other electronics. Most of this price difference is taxation but companies also take advantage. just so you guys have a clue Galaxy S3 is still being sold for R$1999,00 (US$1000,00) and I don't believe the price will drop anytime soon.

                        Welcome Brazil guys! Yes, here the taxes, in almost everything, is 60%-90%. That's why Brazilians spend so much money in when they travel outside. We are the fourth country with higher taxes. Take a look at the price of cars, gas, big mac etc

                          jcp is Right. Brazilian are used to being stolen. Even with these prices people will buy it.

                          Taxes are responsible for 60% of the price if the pheno is imported. If it's built in Brazil the protective labor laws make the price go high also. :(

                          Anyway Apple asks a high price for it's phones all around the world and crazy people buy it also.

                          I thinks idiots are spread all over the world! :-)

                                AnonD-43357, 28 Mar 2013850 USD for a phone that google sell for less than 50% of t... moreHAHAHAHA you're deeply mistaken if you thing those 500 USD are just taxes! Most of it is just the excessive profit that is only achievable because brazilian consumer is idiot enough to pay all that money for a phone. Of course government has its share of guilt, but the most guilty is the consumer!

                                    Update: there is only some units now in Brazil

                                    From techtudo:

                                    "It happed abroad and here it couldn't be diffefent. Nexus 4, smartphone announced by Google on the morning of Wednesday (27), is already sold in Brazil. Although still advertised on their main pages, Ponto Frio and Fast Shop show no more units available. Americanas is the only store that still has the product in stock."

                                    Man, only few hour passed and people bought as they does with Iphone.

                                      Very expensive, but not much more than what I expected. Flagship phones actually are that expensive here un Brazil :/
