Exactly two weeks ago, on September 21st, Apple announced the launch of its 2018 iPhone 3, the XS, XS Max and the iPhone 5 XR along with the Apple Watch 4 Series. As always, Apple's new iPhones cost a lot, but recent reviews show that Apple is more profitable than ours.
According to the analyzes, the XS Max iPhone with 256 GB of internal memory needs $ 443, while Apple's 2018 flagship will sell $ 1249!
For a better understanding of the issue, let's list the price of all the components used in this handset. Of course, earlier these analyzes were made for the iPhone X and we had similar results.
As you can see, the total equipment used to make the XS Max iPhone is only $ 443. The XS Max iPhone with 256 GB of internal memory costs $ 1,249. Meanwhile, the XS Max 64 GB is priced at around $ 1099. More surprisingly, the price for the 256GB memory is only $ 20 more than 64GB of memory. Meanwhile, the XS Max 512 Gigabyte iPhone is priced at $ 1,449.
Bloomberg estimates that every gigabyte costs $ 25 cents to Apple for memory, which adds up to 78 cents per user for 1 gigabyte.
The statistics show that Apple had considered internal memory as a way to make more money from the first days of making iPhones. However, the amount of money required to make the iPhone is not proportional to the price of these products. All of these statistics indicate that Apple is a bigger but expensive vendor buying its customers with the heart of the goods of gravity.
