I understand why they do it, and it works, but I suppose more people are starting to realize that flash storage is cheap, and they feel sour about the 1000% markup on the 64GB+ models. Plus, it's not difficult to look up teardowns and productions costs of all the flagship phones on the market and see their seemingly absurd profit margins. All these damned for-profit corporations...

Schiller also said that using 16 GB storage for lower-end models allows Apple to save money for use on higher-end components in other parts of the device, like the camera.


I'm sure that $5(if that)really made a difference. I don't have an issue with them doing whatever they want,but I call bs on that statement.
