$750 Apple product. That’s like saying all Android phones are $1249 because you can spend that much on a Samsung: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/galaxy-note/galaxy-note9-512gb--at-t--sm-n960uzkfatt/ https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/galaxy-note/galaxy-... Actually, if you don’t mind going back a couple of generations (and considering that typically Apple gives 5 years support compared to a typical 2-3 for Android manufacturers that’s not awful) then you can happily get an iPhone with a pretty competitive CPU for $450: https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-7 https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-7

> $750 Apple product. > you can get an iPhone [...] for $450 Way to miss the point :) many Android phones people use over here are several times cheaper. Many people just don't even ever think about buying Apple because of its price.

That's still really expensive. I make decent money (like most on HN, I assume) and my phone costs under $300, the improvements for phones above $300 are relatively minor besides the camera.
