iPhone is an Apple product with the “i” representing “internet, individual, instruct, inform, and inspire.” The main goal of Steve Jobs (the chairman, chief executive officer (CEO), and co-founder of Apple Inc.) was to establish themselves as a brand in the market, not as a small brand, but as a worldwide famous brand.
iPhones are expensive because they are built with components and software that replace premium technologies that were once needed and separated from the phone.
Why is iPhone so expensive?
here are some of the reasons why the iPhone is so expensive:
- Software & Hardware
Unlike Android O.S phones which look new when you first buy them; Phone speed, camera, overall performance is good in all aspects. But with time, the performance quality of the phone will continue to decrease, most of the phones become slow in a few months and the performance is not available as before. When you reset, it becomes like new again and starts working well.
iPhone’s software and hardware stand the test of time. The same performance is assured and as long as there is no physical damage, it still looks new. This is because iPhone uses quality materials in building its hardware.
- Security
One of the main reasons iPhones are so expensive is because of their security. Apple maintains strict security in all their products, which has earned the trust of the customers. This feature makes them expensive.
It is in this view that, most prominent people in society are seen using iPhones.
iPhones are very fast
As compared to other O.S mobile devices. iPhones have very fast processors. Since everyone would want to use a device that is fast in its operation, the demand is high and hence it is so expensive.
- Show-off
One of the reasons iPhones are expensive is a “show-off.” There is competition as to who is using the latest iPhone version. Apple has taken over the market in such a way that those who are their diehard fans are kind of blind. The perception that those who have/use an iPhone is rich contributes to iPhones being so expensive.
