re: Is $1,000 for a phone that ridiculous?

The phone is an everyday item that is widely considered to be a tool for productivity rather than a status symbol

its 100% a status symbol.
Again I'll ask, what can the $1000 iphone do that a last gen Galaxy S7 can't? Pretty much nothing. iOs vs android aside, they do the same thing with basically the same efficiency.

But there is a difference between expensive and ridiculous. I think that $1,000 is expensive, but I don't think it is ridiculous given usage and functionality.

at this point, you are just being a contrarian and splitting hairs. enough already.
