People will cry that they have too much storage and feel like they are hurting the environment
There are people out there who don't need that much space on the phone i.e. my mum who is currently using a 16GB iPhone 6 atm.
Though from how I saw leaks of 32GB model, I am inclined to believe that it's more to do with profits.
EVERYTHING about Apple is Profit$… don't nobody ever forget that
So is almost every other companies out there :)
OF COURSE lol…. but for some reason people turn into horny schoolgirls when they see Apple bling
@Neo:
Apple products command a premium because they prioritise the customer experience, make thoughtful design decisions and use premium materials and methods to manufacture their products. Any other company could be as profitable as Apple if they adopted the same discipline and focus. Every CEO dreams of their company trading places with Apple any day of the week. The reality is that many companies don't understand the marketplace in which they compete or how to build value and customer trust and are forced to compete on price
@Alphaeus: if apple stripped their customer service and started making their products with playdoh, people like you will still buy it as long as it has the logo. its people like you who make apple profitable, not their products
@Alphaeus:
Premium customer experience, yes. Premium components, you're having a laugh!http://www.businessinsider.com.au/apple-new-iphone-6-plus-te…
@Alphaeus: I agree in the main, and good on them. However one could argue >30% profit margins may be a tad high…
Tear down estimates do not include labour, tooling, design, software, destribution or marketing costs. Yes I do mean premium components — show me one other phone that has the same fit, finish or hand feel of the iPhone 6 enclosure. No company is assembling mass produced consumer devices out of aluminium and glass to the same nanometre tolerances. Not Samsung. Not HTC. Not Motorola. No company. Hell even materials people are now saying no company is producing metals for mass market products to the same tolerances as Apple.
Some of us are also past the idea that electronic devices are just a commoditised assembly of chips and a display with some "ok it sort of works, maybe" software slapped on top. Android just replicated all of the overall design decisions that Microsoft made with the PC.
Think about that for a second. They're just PC's; Software isn't sandboxed properly, developers have to cope with too many configurations and the user is expected to be their own software security expert all over again. At least iOS made some new design decisions by not exposing the underlying file system, unhinging the network carrier from the software food chain and drawing a line in the sand overgrown software like Adobe flash.
I don't sip the KoolAid — I'm critical of Apple where they need criticism (antenna gate) but in this instance credit where credit is due. If it wasn't for the iPhone you'd still be using Android phones that looked like blackberry's with crappy plastic keyboards.
So the price looks decent, then you see the bend over you need to give to buy a 64GB (there's no 32GB)
Base model should be 32gb now considering there is no micro sd slot.
This is certainly a bargain relative to iPhone 6 prices but it's a bargain I will never be availing of. What a stupidly over-expensive pile of junk.
16GB :(
Bargain. Just bought two for the kids.
Same price at ow - http://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/m20ProductDisplayView?cat…
lucky being your children
i believe you mean "spoilt" lol
He doesn't specify the number of kids, for all you know his 8 kids have to share 2 phones!
does it come with a watch?
16GB KILLS THE DEAL.
$1k for a phone? Jesus christ.
you better sit down for this one…. $14,000 for an apple watch edition
Why is it so expensive?
Why does a dog lick its balls?
Up to $24,000.
Apparently, its a bargain.
@joeflacco Hint: it's not "a phone", it's the world's most powerful supercomputer attached to a 1080p-display that fits in your pocket and isn't immediately compromised by shovelware/spyware/malware the second you connect it to the Internet. That sounds like a pretty good deal to me.
wink wink
It's just amazing that people can spend $1000 on this "technology" when a comparative PC for the same price is light-years ahead. It's essentially paying a $600 premium for a smaller form factor. I'm sticking with Chinadroids for as long as I live.
Yeah, Chinadroids for me too. Work recently gave me a 64GB iPhone 5s and I am beginning to get used to it. What the heck, its free.
Though, I think that "premium for a smaller form factor" have been around since god knows when. Laptops, ultrabooks, gaming laptop, some of HTPCs etc etc that is built with gaming in mind so on and so forth. I went slightly off topic, but yeah, I personally think iPhones are not really bang for the buck smartphone.
Slightly off topic again, I've looked at my old laptop (from the last days of Compaq as an independent company), and it was massive and I think it had port for like everything (I couldn't even recognise half the ports). I wonder if I will feel the same about smartphones 13 years later (Probably will).
Not a bargain, I reckon Apple bumped up the prices significantly since launch. I bought iPhone 6 64 gig at $999 for my wife at launch now showing up at $1149. sneaky bastards. I am pretty sure this one was $999
You know this is a 6 PLUS right?
Yes. This one is 6 plus but the discount is more like 4% and not 15%. I do agree with the price hike Apple phones are least attractive at the moment.
Yeah it was $999 so $958 is still a good deal even if the RRP hadn't changed.
this might gotta do with the exchange rate.
Funny how a fall in the dollar is reflected immediately in prices, but a rise in the dollar will not be.
Correct. Starting price for iphone 6 regular is now $999. http://mobile.itnews.com.au/News/401435,apple-jacks-up-aussi…
This is by to far the best phone I have ever used but I recommend paying a little extra to the get 64 GB or 128 GB model if you will be storing audio, video or photos.
Isn't a "little" extra $100? Or was it $120?
16Gb is too less
Just noticed its only 16gb, why release a flagship model with such pathetic space.
