Why are these chink phones priced so high? They are made in

Because Apple.

Seriously, it's just branding.

>>57845722
Shareholders in the US are different from literal wage slaves in china. Apple gets away with it because people are willing to pay a premium for them and don't notice that apple hasn't really made many significant improvements or good additions in years. It just looks nice and "modern" which people think is a good thing to have and/or because they don't care about having default shit on it because they never will jailbreak it.

Apple got lucky with their early marketing and are now thought of a top-of-the-line company without needing to put anymore effort into their products, just like BMW recently making shitty batteries but people still buy them because BMW has a legacy and iconic name, regardless of how shitty they've become they still have decades of recognition to fall back on, just as Apple has over a decade of making things that looked nice and worked sufficiently but now they can advertise less because they don't need to anymore since they've become more iconic as a brand.

Because it has an A10 Fusion inside.

Maybe someday others will catch up

I sure love having to wait for my fucking keyboard to garbage collect so I can type an SMS. It's the future desu.

I can't see how everyone in this board can be so delusional. Sure the iPhone costs quite a bit, but nobody can deny the smoothness of the operation is orders of magnitude better than any Android phone filled with random breaks, shit optimization and loads of input lag.

Because Android devices are still struggling to compete with the iPhone 6s when the 7 is already out.

>>57853158

you are just making up whatever bullshit excuse you can

android phones are just fine, mqst of them look better than apples retard minamilst design. really look at the iphone, they look like shit

plus most flagship android phones are made in korea, and technically korea is better than china

china really is bottom barrel garbage.
you cannot possibly expect to produce a quality product made in china. apple is really the only company who does this. typically when you pay a brand name premium, its because the device is made in america or germany, or somewhere like that

there needs to be a new law passed specifically for apple to clearly place the country of origin stamped in red, easy to read litters

>>57845722
Because Apple has the dumbest, most gullible user base, regardless of sector.

>>57853365
Or because they're the only company that can make a decent smartphone

I swear android users are the most gullible.
>hurr durr this phone has 2k display on a 5 inch screen how will Apple ever compete
>hurr durr look at this 10 core SoC, apple is finished

You ever stop to think there's a reason an iPhone manages to get a similar SoT to Android phones with much bigger batteries?

People buy iPhone because it's more efficient and optimised. If you don't like that, stick with Android. Your choice, but if you literally have nothing better to do than be a bitch and jump on the anti-Apple bandwagon on /g/ then you're even more of a sheep than apple iFags.

So an iPhone?

Because there's nothing premium about Android, considering you can get it on $10 phones from walmart.

>consumerfags will actually believe this

>>57854427
even if there was a source, you can't just compare iphone to android.

There are only expensive iphones, vs android phones that cost $50 and up
so its a stupid comparison, unless the person compared say iphones to flagship androids only.

Anyone who buys an Android flagship will probably just buy samsung, hate touchwizz, take it back and buy iPhone. Unless you're an autistic or introvert neet who wants to fiddle with your phone and do completely unnecessary shit to it

Android varies from the $20 Walmart phone that Grandma uses to phones like the Pixel XL which are the ones equivalent to an iPhone.

i know 2 kinds of apple product users:

>have an affordable iphone model, glorify apple by association with the laid back easy lifestyle of rich people
>could afford any tech, have latest iphone or almost and a recent macbook because they're not really into computers and want something nice but tech-illiterate friendly

and android:

>have affordable android phone because priorities: they spend their money where they think it counts
>have high end android phone because they're into tech and think iphones are overpriced or poorly designed; they're usually specs geeks with demands such as removable battery, micro SD slots, customizeable software, etc.
