12 RepliesFunny (quite disgusting) fact; Apple could have released the iPhone 5, on its launch day, for £150 Sim Free (as opposed to the £650-£700 for 1 year contract) and still made a profit of £30 per iPhone. Also quite curiously, the average person spends £30 a year on apps. So you could have bought an iPhone 5 on launch day, for £150, and apple would have made £60. Consider how many millions of iPhones they sell. Then consider why they are sold for over 4 times the build cost. And no, doubters, that cost is inclusive of the slave labour used to make them, but not shipping. But remember kids, they ship hundreds of thousands of the things per shipment, so shipping is less than £5 per phone.

I've had the same flip phone for over 5 or 6 years I think and I don't have a single problem with it. I kinda think these new smartphone thingamajigs should become a thing of the past.

Bull Feces. Apple would never do that. They're too concerned with their image.

1 ReplyI wish we would do away with subsidized pricing altogether and bring the actual cost of data plans to reasonable levels. $80+ a month? That's ridiculous. I'd rather pay full price for my iPhone and pay less a month, and be free from a contract. Greedy AT&T and Verizon.

Good iPhone still not

According to nowhereelse.fr the alleged budget iPhone is rumored to e called the iPhone 5C due to leaked images of the casing of this iPhone 5c...

iPhone 4S isnt very expensive anymore if you get the 3 year contract. Id say it worth it.

I got mine for 99 cents from AT&T... [spoiler]I't's a 3GS that I got last year.[/spoiler]

And people thought I was lying.

Heavily rumored at this point. You may not see it in the US or Europe though. The reason for it is that phones are not subsidized by carriers in countries like India or Brazil like they are here. With iPhone's costing $500+ in these countries where people don't make much, Samsung has a heavy advantage with cheaper phones for these price sensitive people.
