this means the new iphone will be even more cost effective. android poorfag pajeets completely and utterly btfo

>>57585366
iPhone makes I think 120$ of pure profit.

They could lose 20$ and not care.

And I'm not talking manufacturing costs, I'm talking RND, Marketing everything.

b-because it kills a-a-apple you b-b-baka

>>57585431
>120$ pure profit
It literally costs them close to $200, max, to make any given iPhone. Selling that off contract yields them a profit of at least $400.

>American iphones will be cheaper than chinkphones

ANDROID IS BANKRUPT AND FINISHED

>>57585366
he's not even officially pres yet

UNDER BUDGET AHEAD OF SCHEDULE

>>57585366
The reason why they can't is because there's no companies like foxconn in the united states

>because America lacked skilled workers
Doesn't he mean "because American lacked people who work for pennies an hour and don't have any rights?"
One thing that always struck me as odd about the tech crowd is that they think they're those kind of self-righteous superior beings, but end up doing all sorts of shady shit in the name of profits. It's not like everyone already knows that iPhones are made in China just because the country doesn't give a shit to its workers.

>>57585492
Yes, it's not like the people assembling iPhones by hand are particularly skilled. Apple will probably introduce more automation if they do bring manufacturing back to the U.S. so they can employ 50 people in a factory instead of 1000.

So, that means that those sweatshop workers are highly skilled worker by Apple standars? Why are they paid a joke of a salary then?

>>57585543
True, nothing to scoff at but they could just increase the price and say "Proudly designed and Assembled in America" and charge an extra $50.

>>57585366
>because America lacked enough skilled workers.

lmao

aka lacks 50k gooks willing to work for 2 cents an hour

>>57585621
Apple products dont cost this much just because they arbitarily set it at a high price, its a calculated price that depends on their brand esteem and the consumers willness to pay for it, i doubt that writing that its assembled in the USA will matter to the rest of the globe that will see the price spike

>>57585543
not bad compared to having to eat a 35% tariff if they produce in china

Why can't we just have cheap labor and automation, and then use a cut of corporate savings to provide for socialist policies?
Isn't that the point of cheap labor and automation, so that we don't need to be forced to perform menial labor and can afford to spend our time enriching ourselves and being creative / innovative?
Why do we have to insist on linking work with the ability to afford subsistence when it isn't necessary for us anymore?

>>57585570
But in the third world, they can actually benefir from menial labor jobs. That's why they choose to work them. If they were slaves, you'd be right.

If you'd love nothing more than to tighten a screw over and over 8 hours a day then be my guest, but why insist that you shouldn't be able to afford a living unless you can do that, since we can afford better?

>>57585787
They'll only start funding such policies when they realize there's no one left to buy their products. Which is a long road from where we are.

>8 hours a day
More like 20 hours a day. They sleep in the factory and shit.

The real problem is the electronics assembly networks in the US are no where near as strong as in China

>>57585645
Sure, but a price increase will just make the brand more luxurious and desirable as a status symbol. People are willing to pay $3000 for a MacBook without standard USB ports and nearly $1000 for an iPhone with 128GB and 256GB of NAND, I don't think a $50 price hike would harm Apple.

>Why can't we just have cheap labor and automation, and then use a cut of corporate savings to provide for socialist policies?
First a company needs to think it's worth it to set up factories to do this...

Rather than raising tax on corporations it's better to introduce more laws that prevent them from giving jobs to some poor chinks so they can be less poor, then with even more regulations we make them give job without minimum wage to our countrymen, who instead of having social benefits and being able to educate themselves for a better job or just be neets have to work their asses in factories for pennies.

Another populist policy that surelly will backfire for the consumers. While bringing manufacturing to america is a good thing for everyone, less reliance on the gooks, the components necessary for product manufacturing are still going to be made in China, and importation will be needed.

Component production are a really dirty industry, and because of environment laws and air quality standards, no company in their right mind would bring back real manufacturing, and so the so needed components would be imported and the all the taxes would be passed on the consumers.

So you have 7 bucks an hour sweatshops making products that their workers cant't buy this situation does not solve real issues only makes the big government looks good on statistics. And that's the problem with populist governments.

>>57585491
are you saying he will bring even more industries? holy fucking based. it's going to be a second industrial revolution for america

>>57586782
Trump wants to rape the environment though

>>57585366
Or they could sell at a lower profit margin and be just fine.

>>57585366
Can't fucking wait. Jobs for the Americans.

It's give and take you fuck.

They will be forced to manufacture more here but it will be dampened by a greatly reduced or eliminated minimum wage.

Trump is clever. They'll get the made-in-America benefit while saving cash.

You've been getting to offshore and enjoy the iPhone Starbucks lifestyle for decades while the people your purported to care for as the downtrodden were left to die in empty rustbelt towns. Now you're going to suffer their wrath.

Ironically it was the Democrats who predicted this for decades.

USB-C is a universal standard you stupid cunt.

People are still going to buy it because Apple has a monopoly on retards

oh please as if that's the core reason, do people actually eat that shit up?

The goal of a corporation is to minimize manu costs. That's clearly not going to happen in a developed country like the US

It's hilarious when liberals stuck in their own bubble are delusional enough to start thinking political rhetoric is going to be implemented in real life

I never understood the prodigy meme

It's either someone with a mental disorder that can do one thing well and is often incapable of functioning in other areas

OR

It's someone that has been trained from birth to master one thing and as a result has lost any chance at having a well rounded life

The most successful (whatever metric you use for success) tend to be those that are well rounded and not "prodigies" because they can function in a real world that requires a large range of skillsets

>I can't wait for Apple to slowly die when they are forced to sell iPhones for $2000
Be careful what you wish for.

Apple has by far the biggest profit margins and cash stash, everybody else is operating on razor thin margins.

This means Apple could be the only company to absorb the hike in labour short term, to drive every other manufacturer operating on slim profits, out of the market.

And when that happens and a monopoly is created, 2000$ iPhones and 5000$ macbooks will be the *only* tech products available.


I sure don't like this prospect, and neither should you, dumb cunt.
