The price tag is steep
And that hefty $1,000 iPhone X price tag is the least you’ll pay when you buy one of Apple’s futuristic phones outright. You’ll spend an additional $150 if you want the 256GB model.
Yes, I paid the price. And so did millions of others. But I still think iPhone X is wildly overpriced.
I understand the iPhone X brings a cutting-edge OLED display, advanced facial recognition, incredible cameras and more. It should certainly command a high-end price tag. But a 64GB model costs Apple just $370 in components and manufacturing.
That’s around $150 more than the manufacturing cost of an iPhone 7 at launch. Did the iPhone X’s price tag really need to surpass $1,000? Other consumer electronics become more affordable every year. You can buy a fairly decent laptop for next to nothing these days.
