$2,900 in 2023 buying power.
Isn’t that like 1,500 in pre-Biden dollars?
What does it do for that kind of money????????/
“She is the latest in technology
Almost mythology
But she has a heart of stone
She has an IQ of one thousand and one
She has a jumpsuit on
And she’s also a telephone”
I don’t know what it does special but I want one.
I notice these prices are quoted within China.
Am wondering if Apple has moved so much production out of china, that iPhones in China now must be imported from Vietnam or India.
That’s a bunch of irresponsible hogwash. And this dishonesty will permeate the consciousness of the less discerning among us. The author should be ignored.
Based on my experience with my Apple iPhone 12 and T-Mobile 5G, I’m ready to go back to a desktop wired black phone. The whole system sucks big time. Half my calls do not go through, 98% of those that do connect end abruptly with beep-beep-beep, garbled sound, unreliable ringing of the phone.
The whole mobile system is one-tenth as good as it was 25 years ago with a Moto StarTAK flip phone on CDMA.
The data service works reliably as do mobile apps that depend on mobile data (text, Spotify, sending photos, maps, etc). But voice calls? Bah!
Asinine article based on some baseless conjecture related to Chinese exchange rate. If the 14 Pro Max is $1,099, there’s no possible way that Apple will set the 15 Pro Max at $2,900. That’s not how these things are done.
$3,000 for a cell phone?
A sucker born every minute...
I’ll be taking a loan on my house. I’ve got to have this!
Is it made of gold? Might be a good investment…
Oh heck NO!
If they can get enough people to pay it, then God bless them.
And how much of that ends up in China.
It won’t cost me anything.
Keep the phone you have and make a payment on your student loan.
gasoline powered car prices are already insane but just wait a few more years.
we will be dreaming we could get a used 2003 Mazda with 400,000 miles for $30k
If made in the USA it would cost $2,916 and create thouands of jobs.
The cost to manufacture things like Iphones have little to nothing to do with what Apple charges for them. Companies price their products at what the market will bear, not what they cost to manufacture them. Apple might sell 100 of these at $3000 and they know it so they won’t be priced there. I doubt Apple spends more than $100 manufacturing it’s most expensive phone, the rest is pure profit. Their bean counters know a $3000 phone won’t sell so there’s no way they’ll price it anywhere near that.
