It's not about making their stuff cheaper. They just want to take the royalty money they pay and put it in their pockets. They're not going to pass the savings onto the customers. Nobody ever passes the savings on to customers. The royalty is probably a couple of cents at the most per device. It makes more sense for them to just pocket the millions in savings and show extra profit to their shareholders. It would be dumb to give up millions to drop the price a few cents, which won't even be noticed by consumers anyways.
