High end android phones that use Qualcomm chips are closing in on $1,000. Pixel 2 XL, Samsung Note 8, Samsung S8, etc. Iphones and high end Android phones are priced pretty similarly.

Logically yes but what is Apple's benefit besides perhaps supply chain (being able to get components for cheaper because they know they need x million of them)? By that metric, how far behind can Samsung Galaxy line be? Why does Apple command a higher margin than a similarly priced Samsung Galaxy device? (Lets leave Pixel aside because they are likely two orders of magnitude below in terms of units sold)
