That's not how {Apple,the World,business,life} works, young grasshopper.
- gnur 12y agoMultiple smart phone manufacturers have already begun doing exactly that, young grasshopper. Note 4, Nexus 6, Lumia 930, YotaPhone all come with a minimal capacity of 32GB.
- Otik 12y agoYou're not comparing like-for-like: Samsung, LG and Microsoft all produce other devices that come with less than 32GB of space. If you need 32GB, Apple provides a device for that (as do other manufacturers). If you don't need that much but want an Apple device, you can buy a 5C.

Not all consumers understand what 8 or 16gb means and trust any iPhone to be good. Moreover Apple could easily double their smallest tier and still have the largest margins in the industry.
