So what about Beats? Is that all just chopped liver?
As soon as Apple realizes they can incorporate batteries into the design, and sell different colored batteries so people can have their own custom "look", they'll suddenly be replaceable and marked up 70%.
I can't wait for the $250 AirPod Max hard travel cases to start showing up (with built in charging). But what about expensive charging stands so you don't have to put them in the purse/pouch to turn them off?
On the other hand, at least Apple has figured out how to turn commodity computing into an aspirational luxury good instead of an inevitable race to the bottom and low margins. Their recent moves are all intended to give them more control of their experience and extend that strategy out for as long as possible.
