    $200? what fantasy world do you live in?

    The cost of making an iPhone 14 Pro was $570 and it sold for $800.

    They are focused on services for making big profits, which is why you have to subscribe to a million services

      I was exaggerating for effect. I just did a quick google:

      A new report details how much it costs in materials to make Apple’s top-of-the line iPhone 14 Pro Max. According to Counterpoint Research’s bill of materials (BoM) analysis of the iPhone 14 Pro Max with 128GB, the cost is about $464. That model retails for $1,099

      So I’m not far off in the price difference. Like I said overpriced bullshit. But you feel free to keep sucking that apple dong.
