SpecNg:
The new iPhone X also called iPhone 10 costs apple approximately $412.75 to produce the phone. Check out the cost of each component used below

The most expensive component is the 5.8” OLED panel manufactured by Samsung. It’s price is $80 per unit which is way higher than any other part.

The NAND memory, acquired from Toshiba is $45 for 256 GB.

The 3 GB RAM is half - only $24.

Apple announced the A11 Bionic chipset, which is built by TSMC on their 10 nm process technology. One chipset costs $26 while the modem that is plastered on it is provided by Qualcomm and is $18 more.

The 3D sensor is also in the expensive category - it is $25. It is packed behind the glass on the front panel which is another $18.

The logistics and few production costs aren't included here though.

Recall that the iPhone X (iPhone 10) costs about $1000 (N400,000). So do you think that Apple is making huge profits from their devices?

That just how much the materials cost.

It takes only an expert to build that phone to perfection.

.... Sorry for being skeptical about it being 250k in Nigeria ANYWHERE.

What profit would they make? I ask because i once bought a S7 Edge for a lady friend for 290k in 2016, Offical Samsung Shop too....

same timeline after release plus J1 mini if i remember rightly.

I am open to education on this issue

I was just lucky. They said it's quick promo. If I had another 500k would have bought 2 more to make it 3 sef plus 2 J primes and could be sold them. Lol. I'm still with my J prime though. Haven't touched it.

My friend, you were extremely lucky. I was at the Mall just last weekend and they sell nothing at reasonable prices. The perfumes are sold at a times 20k extra

I even went to banex and slot to be sure the price was not exorbitant and Samsung sold cheaper plus free phone on top. Oh boy

See the way you guys reason, you didnt factor the cost of Intellectual Property and ideas..

You think coupling up those sh.its would make the phone work like an iPhone ?

No wonder the uneducated rule the educated in Nigeria.

The educated just do not have a thinking faculty



Baby engineer you are, when u get brewed and refined I will respond to you adequately on engineering design and cost.

For now, go do you laundry it's late a.m Saturday

Firstly, it was bendgate.
Now, it is crackling sound. So much for the intellectual property and idea, then magical coupling ability. Lol
