This is the 10,000th time someone has posted TE products to HN and said they're overpriced. They make high-end luxury products for rich people, if you think it's too expensive then you're not the target audience. This is like saying a Lamborghini is too expensive because you can by a Toyota that does 90% of the same stuff for a fifth of the cost. Every one knows, that's the point.
I mean I get it, I would never buy anything from TE either, just like I can't afford a Lamborghini. But I can still look at it and go "Wow, that's really pretty."

- rjh29 2y agoProbably resentment because the original OP-1 was not crazily priced for its novelty and feature set. Once it got popular it rose from $800 to $1400 and the new OP-1 Field is $2000. And the KO-II series is actually reasonably priced by their standards!
