I'm not quite sure how a thread about Android becoming the leader in global sales of smartphones has become one about people paying what they perceive as a reasonable price for their iPhone.
As I said in my previous post, it's up to the individual to decide what each individual device is worth to them. If they want to pay what appears to be a premium for an Apple device, given the company's market position yet profit share, that is entirely up to them.
The iPhone may indeed be an object of great desire to them - it's a very good phone. Or perhaps they have simply not done their research? There are other equally good phones that may suit them better, available more cheaply.
