iPhone Alert 2020: Apple's price has risen

In a new report seen by AppleInsider, the well-acclaimed Apple secretary, Ming-Chi Kuo, revealed that Apple's willingness to equip each iPhone with 5G in 2020 will lead to a sharp rise in prices.

AppleInsider explained: "Guo believes that the area of ​​the main logic board of the iPhone 5G must increase by about 10% in 2020 to accommodate new technologies." "The increase in area will bring costs - the manufacture of motherboards and some new antenna technologies will The cost of manufacturing the component is increased by 35%."

According to Kuo, the motherboard is one of the most expensive components in the iPhone, and only the OLED display and the A-series processor are more expensive. As AppleInsider pointed out: "At present, the 5G option in transport phones has increased the price of already expensive flagship phones (such as the Galaxy S10) by about $400."

Despite Apple's unparalleled economic size, the company's profit margins are unparalleled, which means that the decision to equip each new iPhone with 5G will be difficult. I suspect that Apple will be able to reduce the current $400 premium (although using Qualcomm 5G modems like competitors), but it seems that iPhone fans will inevitably have to bear the risk of adding hundreds of dollars to their next-generation phones.

This is a difficult drug because the leak indicates that Apple's 2020 iPhone plan is the most ambitious plan in the history of the iPhone. Perhaps the most troublesome is the return of Touch ID, but with new screen sizes, stunning 120Hz ProMotion displays, remote 3D cameras and the long-awaited switch to USB-C. Of course, all the coveted technologies have problems, and that is not cheap.

Apple is known for increasing the price of the iPhone while still maintaining a large amount of sales, but its 2020 iPhone may only push customers to the limit.

I sold my iPhone 6 at HandsetRecycle for the best price. I believe HandsetRecycle.com is one of the best phone recycling websites in the UK.
