I bought my wife a Pixel 2 for half off yesterday. Pretty happy with that. There is no need for a phone to cost more than a computer.

I’d love to see the profit margins on those things. I feel like that can’t cost them more then a few hundred dollars to produce. And that’s being generous.

The components are a few hundred at best. Add distribution, r&d, advertising and there’s still more than 50% profit margin.
