    Worth mentioning that this looks to be based on mean salaries rather than median so your real world percentages would likely be higher.

    They are made in the countries where people can’t afford to buy them too.

    Absolutely insane amount of profits for these things.

    Probably costs like 100 dollars per phone to make. Would be interesting to know.

      According to Nikkei it costs $501 to make an iPhone 14 Pro Max which is sold at $1099. It’s still very fat, but there’s no way something like this only costs $100 lol.

        You’re also paying for researching new technologies. They don’t just magically slap the parts together every year and come out with a new iPhone.
