Discussion - Apple, I think you need to address the iPhone Duo launch fiasco because a lot of people are very angry

Let's wait and see how many devices were actually available before jumping to conclusions; we shouldn't be making premature judgments, which seems to be a common habit for PhoneArena.

I’m wondering about the person who won a 256gb model on eBay by bidding over $9000 when 2tb models went for as low as $5000. With no certainty it will even be delivered. “PT Barnum was right”.

Well there are lots of rich people who have only who do t care what it cost to be 1st, for something everyone is gonna have later dually the same for less money.

If this was an exclusive item, i could understand. But to pay almost 3 times for something in a few months everyone is gonna have, that does exactjy the same thing n is completely stupid.

I thought these people are so smart. To pay more for something that is almost valueless b3cause everyone is gonna have one, making you being 1st; least important.

Scalping markets exist because enough people are stupid enough to pay 200-400% premiums just to get something first. Hardly Apple’s fault.

The probably have less than 1M. It was already stated how many of these can be made in a month.

It is estimated that only 100,000 of these are made in a month. Apple just started production maybe this past summer.

With user base on iPhone over 1B, then it is safe to assume there would be millions of people who want one.

Also production runs on a 1st Gen devicebisbslower n ton weed out defects in workmanship as you have to fine tune the machines to make the product properly.

Once that is done and if the same design is kept for 4 or 5 years like Apple doew, then the process can be fast th3 next tome allowing production to double.

But foldables wont ever be produced at th3 same rate as a regular phone.

Most parents cut from a single aluminum block anf carved out. The foldable is different and also requires a more tedious process to build. And the screens have to be mated to a shell and a hinge too and Apple complicated th3 process even more with th3 matte screen inside trying to hide something that is never gonna go away and is only going to get worse with usage.

All this dramatic talk aboit how Apple was gonna get rid of th3 crease was just all smoke and mirrors as usual. If it beens it has to have a crease unless it isb2 separate parts. Period.
