Do you mean like the $499 Mac Mini? The $899 MacBook Air?

Is that you, Tim Cook? Conveniently overlooking the $700+ iPhone, $2000+ MacBook and the $395-$10,000 watch that runs only 18 hours before having to be recharged?

Oh, WOW!, the Samsung ANDROID phones are more expensive than the Apple iPhones. Who woulda thought?

Oh, WOW, again. The Apple pricing is either competitive or less expensive, when compared to upper tier competition. . . Yet it is the Apple products that are consistently given the nod as the best products in their class. NOT Dell. I was going to do a comparison to Sony Vaio as well, but Sony has announced they've discontinued their computer products.

The fine print: Apple and Dell pricing sampled as of March 14, 2015 from store.Apple.com and Dell.com. Pricing of Dell products added software to Dell Products to approximate software that comes included with Apple Products as best fit possible from Dell options available.

Yes, you can find Android phones, Windows laptops, and wearable devices cheaper than Apple products. . . but you are talking about cheap, commodity, bottom-of-the-barrel products, a market in which Apple simply does not compete, has never competed, and has no intention of competing. They do not want the customers who buy on price only, and don't understand value.

Your watch pricing is also off. The price of the watch starts not at $395, but at $349. . . and the high end goes to $17,000. . . and that 18 hours is with constant usage. The Apple Watch goes to sleep if you are not actively using it or repeatedly checking it every few minutes. . . and will last all day. Most people will have no problem putting it on a MagSafe connector to charge for under an hour daily. . . and before you chime in with another canard, yes, the batteries are replaceable when they wear out.

Why do you delusional Apple haters always have to exaggerate?

Some people sleep for more than six hours a day.
